Spotting after sex and lower abdominal cramps are not signs of pregnancy, but could be signs of a possible organic lesion (infection or tumor) in the vagina or uterus. Nonetheless, you can take a home pregnancy test to exclude pregnancy, but you HAVE TO consult a gynecologist to identify the reason for cramping and spotting.
