default
Posted on Mon, 17 Aug 2015
Question: I have had unprotected sex, and no pull out on 07/12/2015. On July 13th i started my period, it was a little less normal, not as much cramping, not too heavy but not light, and it was a normal 5 days. Then i had unprotected sex the last day of my period which was 07/17/2015. But he pulled out this time. i have been spotting light pink since then, only when i wipe. I have cramps in my left abdomen area, i feel sick to my stomach, tired, restless, like i cant sleep. my lower back hurts like crazy.. what could this be, im waiting for health insurance through my job so i can go, i have researched everything possible. im scared.

Brief Answer:
No chance of pregnancy with these coital episodes

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, thanks for trusting health care magic.
I understand your anxiety related to the issue.
There is no risk of pregnancy by these two events of sexual intercourse because near to the periods there is absolutely no chance of pregnancy so that way you are safe.
But in case you had sex before this also in your mid cycle then there can be a risk.
In any case do a urine pregnancy test and see for the result.
In case the test is negative then no need to worry about the changed period pattern as it can occur this way in some cycles.
All the best.
Regards

Brief Answer:
Urine pregnancy test if negative nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
Most likely it is due to some hormonal change which can be due to various reasons like stress, dehydration due to change in environment or a new exercise schedule so in general nothing to worry.
Just do a urine pregnancy test and in case negative then nothing to worry
