Q: What is this??? Am i pregnant???

I had my period July 31. The 1st day was just some spotting. Then, Aug. 1-3 it was fairly heavy(normal i guess). On the 4th there was nothing during the day but from the evening on to the 5th there was drips here and there.
Thats my first concern i never had a period like that.

Then,the same day my period ended i used the restroom and when i wiped myself there was alot of discharge(enough for me to really notice). It was fairly sticky,egg-white and had a wierd smell(well it was wierd to me). Concern number 2 because according to all the articles I have read after your period you should have none or very little cervical mucus/discharge for at least 3 days.

Things you should know....
I have had unprotected sex several occasions before my period. I also had very sore breasts on July 26-28. Since then my nipples have just had this cramping kind of feeling. And I did get a few terrible cramps(Aug.6.) I took a pregnancy test July 28th but it turned out negative.

Today i had unprtected sex again with my exboyfriend.
When I used the restroom and wiped my self it looked as if my discharge was brown but it was very faint almost light light pink.

What do you think???

if you don't want a kid you should not be having unprotected sex period...are you on birth control? if not this is something you should look into as it seems you have a habit of having unprotected sex...all I can say is test and if its been 5 days or less since you had unprotected sex look into taking Plan B for back up.....you should test again in 2 weeks(esp if you dont get your period) for pregnancy since you said you had sex again with your boyfriend unprotected...

This discharge... if it had a weird smell then it’s possible you had a yeast infection. Were you itchy at all? Some women get minor yeast infections during their periods, if the symptoms are gone then it would probably be nothing to worry about.

I sounds to me like you had your period, and then some older blood from that period leaked out during/after sex when you went to the bathroom-- it's normal.

Are you ttc? If not, then definitely look into birth control. It can help protect against pregnancy, you'll get the nice added bonus of relieving most PMS symptoms and shorter, lighter periods.

Also, I agree with worrywart. If you're not trying ttc, then Plan B would be a good idea for the unprotected sex you had today. Plan B is best taken within the first 72 hours after sex, but can be taken up to five-- not something you should procrastinate with though.

Periods can sometimes be weird, you took a pregnancy test before it and it was negative so you weren't pregnant (the symptoms you describe are the same as PMS ones - if you had enough hcg to cause those symptoms you'd have had enough to test ).

If you don't want to fall pregnant get some birth control.

Quit having unprotected sex!
It's so simple....Do NOT have unprotected sex! Sooner or later,you WILL get pregnant. It does sound like you have a yeast infection. Do you have a dr. you can go to? They will give you meds for that. But,if you keep having unprotected sex,you will either be a Mother or get STD's, maybe even AIDS. Wake up,honey.

This is very true! sooner or later, you WILL get pregnant...*15 weeks* : )
AND sometimes it's not you will EITHER be a mother or get a STD, but sometimes it you will be a mother AND get a STD. Another experience.
DON'T HAVE UNPROTECTED SEX!
