Could i be pregnant? Or is this a normal cycle?

[milly2000]

I've recently come off the pill so i'm still learning my natural cycle, but i'm not sure if i could be pregnant or just over thinking.

My last period started on 13/09 i had unprotected sex 22/09. I had some pinky brown spotting last night and this morning i have had period like shooting pains. Im not due on my period for another 10 days. Are these things normal?

Hi there!

So firstly, as you probably know, coming off the pill does all sorts to your body whilst you get back into your usual cycle, so could just be a case of your body getting used to everything as a bit of spotting isn't uncommon when coming off the pill.

But I reckon last night it might have been ovulation spotting? If we were to assume you have a roughly average cycle of 28 days then that spotting would have happened around the time we would expect ovulation to occur (I occasionally have ovulation spotting and always have the ovulation shooting pain)

(oh and FYI, if you only had unprotected sex on the 22nd, 3 days would be too quick for implantation to have occurred so I don't think you are pregnant, at least not yet anyway)
