Q: Very strange period or Pregnancy ?
asked by: Little_Lite on September 19th, 2007

During the summer my boyfriend and I had intercourse on several occassions a week after my period ended, which was around the 20th of July. This was our first time and we used protection on every occassion. As far as we know none of the condoms broke or anything, he slipped out of me seconds after 'coming'.

Now, I'm one who worries a LOT. On August 15th I got my period and it was like every normal one I had except it barely lasted six days. This was kinda whee bit weird because usually on the sixth or seven days they just have a bit of spotting and such. Nine or so days after my period finished I had brown vaginal discharge for two days. Not complete flows but rather came only twice and nothing inbetween or after. Now it is September 19th and this period has been acting really weird. I heard worrying about being pregnant can cause changes in the period cycle so heres what been going on with this one. On the 17th I had a very little amount of spotting which was usual so I expected my period to fully start the next day.... which it didn't. On the 18th more spotting happened along with small amounts of brown vaginal discharge. Finally today, the 19th, the heavy flow came along with normal HORRIBLE cramping and such. Just that it last a few hours and the bleeding has slowed down like it was the third day.

After my period on August 15, which was normal except for being shorter by one day, my boyfriend and I had intercourse with DOUBLED condoms on six or so occassions. Since the 28th of August we haven't done anything...

So I'm wondering, is this 'weird' period justifiable to get a pragnancy test done? Or could this be stress and me worrying about being pregnant? Lately I have been under a lot of stress because of other unrelated emotional problems.

Other facts - Not on Birth Control.


Thank you to those who reply!!!!

you arent pregnant Very Happy

these could be stress related wacky periods or even PMS

but its not pregnancy Smile

and by the way dont use more than one condom at a time. it causes friction and can make the condoms rip or tear. so its a good idea to use one not two lol

hope this helps

Thank you so much, the_girlfreind.

This question has been on my mind a lot, like I stated before, I'm one who worries a lot! I shall also follow the adivce about not putting two condoms together, but even then I won't be going at the birds and the bees for a long time. When I do decided to have intercourse again, I'll be sure to be on Birth Control. : )
