Hey everyone, I'm new here, and had a question. I am a 21 year old woman who in early October had protected sex. Since then I have not. But I'm wondering if the protection could have failed and I could be pregnant...first off, my cycle has NEVER been regular, so I am not sure what the date of my last period before sex was, but 4 days after sex, I got my period, except it was very light (amount wise) and the discharge was more brown, lasted about 4 days (from the start to having absolutely no discharge, which usually takes a little bit longer than 4 days, usually around 6) and it wasn't accompanied by the usual cramps. Usually around day 2 of my period I have rather heavy discharge and a sort of achy pain in my labia. About a week after it ended, I noticed some heavy vaginal discharge, sometimes clear, sometimes white, sometimes even slightly brown or yellow (not real dark). On Monday, I got a very light period again (this started 32 days after the period in october, so a normal time period). This time I also had no cramps but some slight lower back pain, and today is day 4 and it is almost done. So I bought a hpt and took one this evening, and I got a negative. I was just wondering if it would be possible that since I still had some possible 'menstrual' discharge if this could mess up the test?

Sorry its so very long, thanks in advance for any help!

take a test if you are worried

Hi 'Ashley767'.

As far as I know, hpt's don't detect pregnancy until after you've missed a period, if that's what your "menstrual discharge" is. It's best for you to see a doctor for a blood test which should give you more accurate results.

if it was after the time you expected your period then im sure your not pregnant and experiencing period signs

have a blood teat done THAT SOUND LIKE THE WAY TO GO
WISH YOU THE BEST

When I went to flush to toilet I saw this chunky brown stuff in there it wasnt there when I first went in so I know I pee it out what can that be / mean?

hummmm that sounds like it may be blood clots, you probably didnt "pee" it out i came from your vagina. If its brownish then its old blood too, which probably should be checked out if it happens again. If it is near your period time or after it could be that too, did you have any pain accompaning it?

i would go get a blood test from the doctor!!
