July 31st was the last day of my cycle. I had intercourse on the 1st of August, the condom broke, and within two hours I took the first of two Emergency Contraceptive pills (it was a set of two). I did not have another period until Sept. 9 and it was normal. I had another on Oct. 3 and it was normal. I had intercourse twice after that cycle ended, both times unprotected. My cycle started again on Nov. 3rd, but it was extremely light and irregualr and lasted until the 17th. Some days in the middle there was a heavier flow, but was then light again towards the end. I went to the doctor on November 10th and took a pregnancy test that came back negative. Now (December 7th) and for the last 3 days I have had white/brown/red discharge and I feel bloated. Is it that my cycle is trying to get back on track or could the pregnancy test been taken too early?? I don't know if I can consider this cycle to be irregular because it hasn't started yet... and technically as a result of last month's irregularity my next cycle shouldn't start until next week (around the 15th or 16th). I just need a little bit of insight as to why this is happening. I know Im not pregnant, but I also know my body and this isn't my normal. Please help!!

Thanks,
BreeSKY

Have you had sex since the pregnancy test?
