What Do Positive Pregnancy And Bleeding After Intercourse Indicate?
Question: I took a pregnancy test on Friday which is the day my peroid was suppose to start, it came back positive. My husband and i had sex that friday night and after we finished i started bleeding. the bleed has gone from light to heavy back to light. in may my OBGYN since me for an HSG test because i only have 1 ovary and fallopian tube. Could i be pregnant?
Brief Answer:
Will require you to undergo a repeat test 2 days from the last test
Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am and welcome.
Thank you for writing to us.
I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. The first thing I would like you to do is to repeat a home pregnancy test in 2 days time (since the first test was taken), which would mean you will have to repeat the test today or early tomorrow morning. Make sure you use an early morning urine sample, which will be the most concentrated and thus shall provide the most accurate result; and write back to me with the result ma'am.
Pregnancy is of course a possibility that will have to be ruled out at this juncture. Also, I would like to ask two things:
1. Do you wish to get pregnant or were trying to conceive?
2. Did your OBGYN mention anything about fertility to you? If so, what did he/she tell you?
Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.
Best wishes.

yes i am trying to conceive. i did take a HPT yesterday while bleeding and it is still positive but faint. the only thing my doctor mentioned was to do the HSG test to see if it would open my tube and help me get pregnant
Brief Answer:
So the HSG was suggested due to a previously confirmed obstruction?
Detailed Answer:
Hi ma'am.
So your doctor was suspecting an obstruction of some kind in the remaining fallopian tube? Was this previously confirmed (i.e. the obstruction or adhesion)?

i had my left ovary and fallopian tube removed due to ovarian cyst. than i had cysts removed on my right.. and was put on depo. they sent me to have my first hsg test done in 2o12 to hopefully remove the scar tissue for the surgery on my right side... it worked and i got my peroid a month later. in may of this year he sent me for another to see if the tube was still blocked because i havent been able to get pregnant. they results were my tube is open.
Brief Answer:
Sounds like pregnancy is indeed highly likely
Detailed Answer:
Hello once again.
Thats great then, as your tube was open and unobstructed a period would help in maintaining your menstrual function, and thus can also result in pregnancy. This makes it clear that pregnancy is indeed possible, and as you were trying, from the facts on the table, you could indeed be pregnant *fingers crossed*.
Best wishes.

im just worried about the bleeding since the test was positive
Brief Answer:
In which case you should report to your doctor at the earliest for Rx
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
The bleeding will indeed have to be tackled, for which it would be best to visit your OBGYN at your earliest convenience to rule out conditions like a threatened abortion which is quite easily possible in your case due to the lack of one ovary. Do not stress about it, as medications are easily available to help tackle that and with careful monitoring and supervision we should be able to get you through with a successful and uneventful pregnancy.
