Q: delayed period - pregnant?
asked by: patientzero on November 3rd, 2008

my girlfriend and i had unprotected sex the day after her last period ended. however, i didn't ejaculate inside her and i withdrew before doing so.

her period was supposed to start on october 29/30 but she still hasn't gotten it now (november 4). she gets signs of PMS such as "cramping" and she says she can feel it coming, but it still isn't here.

could she be pregnant? getting pretty worried here...

she just got light spotting today (november 4). the blood isn't pinkish or brownish though. its the usual color of her blood during menstruation. she also spots before she gets every period.

given that she's late and its been a few days since when her period was supposed to hit, is it possible that this is implantation bleeding? i read that implanation bleeding is supposed to occur before or during your expected period time.

any advice/thoughts/insight would be much appreciated.

She can take a pregnancy test to be sure.

she's taking one tomorrow for sure. just looking for a bit of advice before then.

we did it a long time ago, october 9. am i correct in saying that its already too late for implantation bleeding to happen? ive been reading up on it and thats the impression i get. our PR was too long ago for the bleeding to be from implantation reasons...

I doubt its implantation bleeding.

It sounds like her period is about to start. Give it a few more days.
Have you discussed a better form of birth control so you don't have this problem again? Pulling out is not reliable and is incredibly risky which makes it stressful. Learn from this situation and decide on a form of birth control that you’ll use from now on.
