Ask Me Help Desk - Pregnancy

Hi. So I need help desperately, I have had periods since I was 11 and now 16 never in my entire time have I ever been late. Now this month I was late 8 DAYS late. After 8days late I noticed a very light pink colored blood when I wiped.it lasted 4 and a half days and off anx in brownish red some and very pinky light color other times or brown discharge. I had gotten sick and nauseated lately, head aches, some what abdominal pain and nose bleed, sore breasts, and really tired. I have been using the pull out methood and I'm concerned I may be pregnant. I took three test on Monday the half day I was discharging, and all negative. Could it be too early? When should I try? Im worried. Could I even be pregnant?

Pregnancy is definitely a possibility. The pull out method is useless, for those that know how pregnancy happens, the pull out method is referred to as "trying to conceive".

If you're not pregnant now, which is possible, you will be soon if you continue to use the pull out method. There's more than enough sperm in pre-ejaculate to get the job done, and pre-ejaculate is present when you're having sex, as soon as a man is aroused he excretes pre-ejaculate, it makes his penis slippery enough to enter you. So yes, it's present, and that's all you need to get pregnant, he doesn't have to ejaculate inside of you, and that's why the pull out method isn't even considered a method of birth control.

Wait until at least 2 weeks after you miss a period, in this case 2 weeks after your period was off. Test using first morning urine. If that test is negative, wait until your next period. If you miss it, test again or get a blood test. Realize that false negatives are very common. Some women never get a positive using an at home pregnancy test, even in their 9th month of pregnancy, when they know for a fact that they are expecting.

A blood test is more reliable, but if done too early it can also produce a false negative. Always test using first morning urine, it's the most accurate. If any of the tests are positive, congrats, you're pregnant.

Good luck.

So was they not a later period, beause after 8 days of being late I had bronish red or very light pink blood spots. Sometimes brown discharge and it was off and on for four and a half days and tten completely stopped. I took a test in late evening while that was happening 3 negative so do I wait a bit and if still negative go to a doctor?

cpuld you read what I saod in reply to this please

It could have been, but could be infection, could be sign of pregnancy, or more.

You can not test till you are 14 days late, and even then may not always show positive.

But you have to test with first urine of the morning as soon as you wake up.

Test at 14 days, and if negative, wait another week and test again, Then if Neg, wait to see if next months period comes. If it does not, time to see your doctor
