Hi I really need help in understanding this pregnancy situation.. I started using the patch about a year ago and had stop using it since last augest and since then I've been trying to get pregnant and nothing yet I see signs that confuse me and I go out and buy tests and they come out negative. But this month is very different I normally have a 3 day period and a 27 day cycle and its usually very heavy the first day then by day 3 I'm all done this time however I started my period 2 days early and my period is lasting for almost 7 days now and its not over yet. I mean it is very light but its still there and I'm worried that its not my period any more that I'm actually spotting
Can anyone help? :confused: :confused:

Baby girl I highly suggest that you see your doctor as soon as possible. Only your doctor can be the one to truly help you with that. The only time I know of a woman bleeding that much is after she has given birth. Please get to a doctor quickly. Keep us posted and let us know what happens.

Is there a chance that I could've gotten pregnant and got my period anyway?

I don't know. Not a doctor. Go talk to a real doctor. Only they have the medical equipment and things to check you out. I have heard of women being on a period during pregnancy but not that much. Talk to a doctor. Id be stupid not to tell you that.

You really should see your doctor as soon as possible. There are a few sites and documents that I usually include in my answers to Pregnancy issues, but for you, it is far safer to see the doc first, and then get back with us. You need to do this for your own reassurance, so the sooner, the better. Good luck dear, and Happy New Year!
P.S. go to the emergency room if your doc is closed during the holidays.

I agree with Crankie and Chery, if you are concerned about excessively heavy bleeding, you must see your doctor and explain the problem. You are probably not pregnant and your symptoms could be stress induced. But you shouldn't wait any longer, go to the doctor right away to have your discharge evaluated. Good luck, hun, and keep us posted.

Chery, I wanted to rate you, but I received a message saying that I should pass my reputation around. I was able to rate Crankie though.

We have been trying for what seems like an eternity. I have been getting all very Bold Negatives. Yesterday I had a faint positive. This morning I did another one and it wa even fainter. Are my hormones low? Should I be concerned? I have low thyriod and it was in check before we got started. We had a VERY definiate with my first son. I have not had any bleeding and was on a 24 day cycle. And I am 3 days late. I have an appointment with my doc tomorrow.. any questions I should ask?

Thanks

Ask any and all questions that come to mind. It will also help if you have a list ready with family history, medical history, medications you take, anything that will help the doctor assess you better. Good luck.
