Hello dear
Understand your concern
If you had unprotected sexual intercourse, there may be chance of pregnancy.
So it is best confirmed by USG scan.
But i think it may be due to post/peri menopausal state.
Also not other cause of periods: Endometriosis, adenomyosis, ovarian dysfunction, fibroid, hormonal imbalance etc.
So there may be chance of no pregnancy in USG scan.
Also do whole hormone profile, endometrial biopsy and PAP smear for evaluation of above causes.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
