The past two weeks I have been getting sick, having back aches, headaches, slight cramps and yesterday I started getting light spotting (light brownish/pink). It's not time for me to get my period, I have about 8 days left. So what could this be? I'm worried. Yes I'm sexually active and I don't use any contraceptives.

Well what could it be... you have sex... you don't use protection... maybe you're pregnant?

Or, maybe you're getting sick.

You will need to wait and see if you get your period... we cannot tell you what is going on.

It could also mean that you are getting your period early.

It sounds much more like getting a cold or flu.

It also could be signs of your period coming.

It is really too early to be having pregnancy signs those will be about a month or two months latter. Normally the first pregnancy sign is a missed period.

Of course you could be pregnant but until you miss a period you will not know. Also you have to be two weeks late before you can test
