Hi, I am a week late on my period and have a off and on regular cycle but I can't tell if I'm pregnant or not. I feel dizzy every so often and my breasts are extremely sore but my feet feel fine besides the normal complaints from working all day. I feel slightly sick but don't have any nausea but neither did my mother when she was pregnant with my brother and I so I don't know if that factors in. The aureolas around my nipples are usually small and don't show but recently are popping out. I have slight pain in my stomach but can't tell if those are cramps and I feel like I get upset or mad extremely easily and cry over small little things and can't control it. I had sex two weeks ago, and I just want to know what the chances are that I am pregnant?


Oh I also have a milky discharge but it does have a slight smell to it so I don't know if that is more of a sign that I am not or not... Thank you.

We can't tell you what your chances of being pregnant are as we do not know whether you were ovulating when you had intercourse. However, with that said, any time you have sex you risk pregnancy.

You are only a week late. Sometimes our periods fluctuate for little or no reason.

Once your period is two weeks late you can take a pregnancy test using first morning urine. Be sure to read the directions carefully in regard to how long to wait before reading the results.

Well I really couldn't tell you when I was ovulating, but I know it wasn't when I had intercourse because it was two weeks ago which was a week before my period was suppose to be due. I use condoms and am very protective with my partner and we try our best to be safe, but we are aware that condoms are not 100% and we do not want to use birth control for I have been on it before for four years and it took a major tole on my body. I had taken a test 4 days ago and the test read negative but I still have not received by period and am showing signs of early pregnancy as well as a equal signs of pms so I am having difficulties reading the signs of my body. Im guessing it was to early to test for pregnancy so I am waiting right now to see what happens and if in a couple more days I take another pregnancy test if it will read differently. Thank you for the help.

First, it is too early to show physical signs of pregnancy other than the missing period. So whatever you are feeling may or may not be due to a pregnancy. As you are aware, no form of birth control is 100% effective. And if you aren't tracking ovulation you really can't be sure whether you were or not.

HPTs are generally less than 50% accurate during the first week after you miss a period. They increase to over 95% by the end of the 2nd week.

With an off and on cycle, it would be more difficult to pin down ovulation, so it very well might have been around the time you last had intercourse. Some women start to feel early pregnancy symptoms before a period is expected, however, they can also be what some women may experience prior to a period about to start.

As was said, give it a bit more time to see if this cycle is also off a bit. If still no period, try a home pregnancy test. Or you could see your doctor about having a blood test which would show a pregnancy sooner... often before a missed period.
