Pregnant or not?

So I had my period in July from the 17th to the 21st and I had unprotected sex on July 31st. After the unprotected sex I ate a plan b pill. About 5 days after taking the pill I starting having symptoms like bloating, feeling like I'm going to puke, cramps, and backaches. I have unprotected sex again on Aug 4th and the next day I saw spotting. For the most part my so called period is light spotting (not heavy) but when I first saw that I was bleeding, the blood was pink. I don't know if I'm on my period or if it was implantation. Can anyone help me?

Are your periods normally regular as in around 28 days each month?

You can do a pregnancy test even this early if you are worried so you can soon and easily find out. Do you want a baby OP? If not, you don't want this kind of worry each month. Maybe the pill would give you peace of mind.

My periods usually come once a month

I'm worried that I may already be pregnant so I don't know if the pill would work

Buy a home pregnancy test. If you are pregnant and don't want to go ahead, there's a non-surgical way of ending the pregnancy early. Ring Marie Stopes or British Pregnancy Advisory Service if you get a positive result. There's lots of places to get help.

Why all the unprotected sex if you don't wish to be pregnant? Confused

Angelovesyou · 07/08/2017 15:44

I didn't say I didn't wish to be pregnant. I really wouldn't mind being pregnant

Sorry, I read 'ate a plan b pill' as meaning you took the morning after pill. What did you mean?

Why did you take the morning after pill then? Confused Just take a test, anything else is guesswork, at best.

Is it normal to have a period literally 14 days after the last day of your past period?

No, that is not normal.

You may have triggered it by taking the morning after pill. Stop guessing and do a test. You seem as if you will be OK either way.
