    Normal vs Pregnant?
    My boyfriend and I haven't used any form of contraceptive and we used the 'pull out' method 2 days ago, and my period isn't due for another 7-10 days. I went to use the washroom and when I wiped with tissue there was some weird looking discharge on it. It was this creamy white, red-ish/light purple-ish color. Is it possible to tell if you are pregnant simply 2 days after intercourse? Or is this just some weird discharge I am having? :confused:

    No, you wouldn't be able to tell just two days after. It is usually several days before the egg becomes fertilized and makes it way to the uterus. A couple of things may be happening... it is likely just from the recent intercourse, but it could possibly be from ovulation. Generally, ovulation occurs about 12 - 16 days before a period is due, but some women ovulate sooner than that and some later.
    Keep in mind, using the pull-out method is not the most reliable as sperm can be present just from arousal. Often is it just a matter of time before a pregnancy will occur.
