    Can you get pregnant during your period?

    Ok so me and my bf didnt have intercourse but he did rubbed at my entrance and my friend told me that I could get pregnant from his pre-cum. So on the day when my period is supposed to be due, it came out lighter than usual. I know if I have my period because I will have backache and have mild cramping and it will be heavy. Is this what you call "spotting"? Or am I having a early miscarriage? All I want to know is that if I'm pregnant or not? Also I haven't tested yet, I heared that it's best to wait till I'm done bleeding.

    How long ago did you have sex? I would doubt you are pregnant if he didn't penetrate you.

      There is about a 2% chance that you will get pregnant. I had an issue similar to that...and I didn't. We went crazy doing research and it said 2% but very unlikely.

        You can get pregnant from pre-cum, and you can get pregnant on your period. But the chances are pretty slim.

          The fact that this started happening the day your period was going to start anyway suggests, to me, that it's simply a lighter period. Hormones fluctuate everyday and even after having a monthly period for years, random things can still occur. I would say that you're not pregnant. Yes, you can get pregnant from pre-cum, and yes you can get pregnant while on your period. As AshleyBrook and Katie35801 said above, the chances are very slim for both occurring (although I don't know the exact percentage). I would try not to worry about it, as stress also can have an effect on your menstrual cycle. If you're really concerned though, take a pregnancy test in a couple weeks. I'm sure you'll be fine.
