Q: Mesntrual flow pregnancy

okay, my boyfriend and i have sex quite a lot we do not use protection he just pulls out. We've been doing this for about... 4 months now, going on 5 I guess. The whole time we've been dating and having sex (actual for at least the past year, sexually active or not) I've been having a normal 3 day period every 34-36 days. For about the past 2 weeks have had horrible headaches and all the other signs of PMS, but really really bad cramping for about three or four days before my period and during. I got my period yesterday. It was bright red and seemed fairly normal except that it is almost 2 weeks early and is practically gone now!

Seriously, I doubt I'm pregnant.
But would having sex mess with this.
Even if I was pregnant, would it be possible to have a normal flow even once during your pregnancy? This is just too weird.

Normally my pms (cramping, bloating, tiredness, tender breasts) goes away within a few hours or within the day I get my period. But they're all still here none the less.

Any explanation?

If you are having a red, heavy/normal period, you are probably not pregnant. Having your period expels the uterine wall and egg.

However, the pull out method is not a method. Chances are, if you keep on using this as your form of protection you will get pregnant soon enough. You should look into getting on the pill (confidential and free at planned parenthood!) or using condoms/some other form of birth control if you are not looking to get pregnant.

How old are you? usually in young women, periods tend to get screwy, even if you've been regular before. And having a 34-36 day cycle, there's room for the egg to release sooner, bringing on your period sooner.

Hmm. Was just wondering what you thought.

And thanks for your concern, but I know all the risks involved with having sex. AND that pulling out is not a method. I never called it a method.
