Spotting After Period - When can I take a pregnancy test?
Posted: 11-12-07 05:53am

Hi, my period is very regular every month. My Sept period is on 24 Sept but I'm having some brownish spotting before my period came on 30 Oct. My period last for 5 days, first two day was kinda heavy but then the rest is very light. 2 days after my period stop, i start to have spotting again but this time is red color spotting.
The spotting is sometimes a little more then sometimes less. It has last for a week now. I do not have any cramp or pain for it. My breast is kinda heavy just like when about to have period. I having sleeping disorder and headache, meaning that I feel tired but i cannot sleep.

Is it possible that I'm pregnant? When can i do pregnacy test?
I dun know whats wrong with me.
Appreciate anyone who know, please advise me!

If you think you are pregnant, then wait 2 weeks after the last act of unprotected sex and test. Do not have sex again until you know if you are pregnant.

Thanks Eiri for replying.
The last unprotective sex that i have is on 14 Oct. I just done my pregnancy test and it is negative. Just wonder why at this time I'm still having this spotting... and my breast shouldn't feel this heavy too...

Any idea?

Take another test if you're still unsure with FMU (first morning urine). It could be too early to tell, but if you are still feeling this way after yet another negative test, go to the Dr. and get them to order a blood test. Hope this helps a little!

Spotting before or after a period is not a pregnancy symptom. It is normal it is just old blood from the previous cycle. The lenght of you periods have nothing to do with pregnancy either.

If spotting is normal, then how normally it will last? I have seen doctor and the doctor just said it should be nothing and ask me to wait and see...
I'm puzzle...
