I have a very irregular cycle. Sometimes I bleed for a three weeks and a week later I will be bleeding again. Sometimes I miss for a month. I am on the oral contraceptive Loestrin-Fe 24 because of this problem. I also am on minocycline. I had sex, during which, we weren't sure when the condom came off. Neither of us finished. I had a period about a week later. Now, (based on a 28 day cycle) I am 5 days late. I took a test it came back negative. I have been stressing a lot lately because of extensive school work. Recently I did some research and I think I am experiencing ovulation due to a think, clear, stretchy, oderless mucus. My question is could I possibly be pregnat even though I had a period right after?

disenchant,

No, it is not really possible to get pregnant that close to your period.

As your period is that irregular, it is however possible that you ovulate at strange times as well.

Even after the condom came off, you were still on the Loestrin pill, right?

The chances are thus almost 0 that you can be pregnant. Take another test in a week's time to make sure.

Best of luck!
