Possible Pregnancy ??
Posted: 07-24-07 17:55pm

my fiance has irregular periods and didnt have one last month and this month (july) she was supposed to have one on the 16 but didnt, we had unprotected sex a week later...is there a chance she could have been ovulating and conceived?

if she didn't have a period last month and her periods are irregular, why does she think she was supposed to get her period on the 16th?

since her periods are irregular you don't know when she's ovulating (unless she's temping and charting, which i doubt), and if you're having unprotected sex then she could very well be pregnant.

are you trying for a baby? if so, good luck. if not, she should get on the pill, that will help regulate her period and protect her against pregnancy.

has she tested since her period is late?

yes, because a woman ovulates *before* her period and since her period hasn't come and they're irregular you won't know when that will be.
