Hi I Recently Had Sex About A Week After I Finished My Last Period.. And Have Recently Been Getting Headaches, A Little Bit Of Back Ache, Feeling A Little Bit Sick And Having Stomach Pains Like I Am About 2 Start My Period Which Is Not Due 4 Another 2 Weeks. I Also Have Small White Spots/Bumps Around My Nipple On The Areola And Have Also Been Feeling A Bit Tired. Could I Be Pregnant??

You're having sex, of course you could be pregnant. However, your symptoms, aside from the white spots/bumps around your nipples, sounds like you may have the flu.

Unfortunately, you are now playing the waiting game and now have to wait to see when and/or if you get your period.

I Have Also Had A Bit Of Discharge. Can I Do A Test Before I Miss My Period? Is It Likely That You Will Get Pregnant About A Week After Your Period Finished?

[J_9]

The best time to test is about a week after the missed period. Otherwise you risk a false negative if you are pregnant. It takes time for the pregnancy hormone called hCG to increase in amounts that are detectable.

It is possible to get pregnant a week after your period finished. It all depends on when you ovulate and how long your cycle is.

I think my cycle is about 28 days

If you THINK your cycle is 28 days, then you could ovulate anywhere from 12 to 16 days after the first day of your period. So, it is possible to get pregnant a week after you stop your period.

When could I take a test? is it still 2 early?

[J_9]

Testing is not very accurate until you miss a period. It takes time to build up the pregnancy hormone hCG. If you test before your period you risk the possibility of a false negative.
