Are These Symptoms of Pregnancy?
Posted: 02-06-06 12:21pm

About two weeks ago I had a period that only lasted 2 1/2 days. I had sex a few days later with my husband and then a few days after that I started feeling a little sick to my stomach and had heartburn. Now I still feel sick to my stomach and I feel like I have a flu or something. I also started heavily spotting bright red today. I am on the pill and my husband pulls out which is what we have been doing for three years, but I know that there is always a possiblity of being pregnant. I was just wondering how much of a possibility it is to be pregnant with these type of symptoms.

If you are taking birth control pills regularly, there is only a very small chance that you will get pregnant. The chances are even smaller if your husband is ejaculating outside of the vagina. You can yake a home pregnancy test to confirm or deny a possible pregnancy. Spotting is not a sign of pregnancy. It could be sign of an organic (tumors, infections) or functional disorder of the genital organs. You can go immediately to your gynecologist to be examined.
