The pull-out method is very unreliable and is not really considered a form of birth-control because it fails all the time. Since you are already lat you can take a pregnancy test at home to see if you are pregnant. If you are not I would try and get on birth control or at least use condoms from now on.

well im not late yet.. thats what i mean its not even around the time my period should start... and i called the doc but they cant get me in till next week. but i made an app. and i will be on birth control by then. but the question in the back of my head is because of my vaginal spotting could i still be pregnant... i read its like 10 days after conception and around your ovulation time. which its sort of around after your period? right?...

You ovulate around 14 days before you period and about 10 days after that implantation occurs.

If you have a normal 28 day cycle then most likely what you experienced was ovulation bleeding. It would be way to soon for implantation bleeding if your regular period just ended on the 17th. Some women get ovulation bleeding but most do not. Some women experience cramping during ovulation but some do not. Each person is different. I would wait until you are late for your period to test but it would be to early right now.
