You were on your period still, at the time u fooled around?

There is a 0.5% chance of getting preg. While on your period (that isnt true statistics, but u get my drift) it is extremly unlikley.

Maybe talk too your doc. About the stomach pains, because u may just have a bladder infection.
Good luck.

It depends on your cycle as to whether or not you are likely to get pregnant on your period. If you ovulate right after your period (which some people do!) you can get pregnant.
Also, you can get pregnant from precum and I doubt it dried in five minutes.
You most likely are not pregnant, and I would try really hard not to worry, but these things do happen to people!

Symptoms of a bladder infection are burning when you go, having to go frequently, sometimes your pee will smell strong.
You can get bladder infections (and yeast, bacterial vaginosis) from sex(that being the main thing!), wiping from back to front instead of front to back (gross, I know and I can't imagine anyone doing that, but people do!), wearing underwear with a colored crotch, baths, bubble baths, etc.
There are lots of other causes but I can't think of any.
You can help prevent them by peeing right after sex (wear condoms every time it also helps), take showers and not baths, wear underwear with a white cotton crotch (this is mainly for yeast infections and bv) and drink cranberry juice.

I dont know..The urge to go to the washroom dies down when im preoccupied and dont thinka bt it too much..Soo I dont know if its all in my head because it doesnt hurt to go or anything. But I feel so hungry right after I eat a big meal and also, last night I was becoming rather dizzy.I think my temperature's rising.I dont know if im just becoming ill or if their signs of pregnancy..I thought a week and a half was too early to be showing symptoms but could it be possible?

You are probably just stressing yourself out and making yourself sick. Try to relax and not think about it and see if you feel better. Are you hypoglycemic or diabetic? Some of your symptoms fit with those two things. Relax and give it some time and then if you still feel ill go to the doc. Especially if the dizziness is persistant or gets worse, because if you did become diabetic you do not want to let it go.

Diabetic????I never thought of that and the thought of it now is rather scary.The dizziness has gone away, now its more like a headache..Probably from lack of sleep. Im still feeling kind of feverish, my temperature just seems to rise and fall frequently. I also stillf eel as hungry as ever, I feel more hungry after I eat then before I had any food intake.

Hmm also, I should be ovulating this week if all is well as it abt 2 weeks before I should expect my period.Ive worried myself so much ive forgotten, ive been getting a clear watery discharge, is that normal?Also still have the urge to urinate although its not as much as a few days ago. Should I be worried?

I wouldn't worry yourself sick, but don't dismiss it either. Actually frequent urination is also a sign of diabetes that I totally forgot about until just now.
But you know you could also just have kind of a virus that is making you feel this way.
I get a clear discharge when I ovulate, so that could be from that.
I am not trying to scare you and you most likely are just sick from something really simple, but you do have symptoms of diabetes. But, I am hypoglycemic which can lead to diabetes but isn't as serious. I have phases when I feel as you do now. Of course, I haven't gone and gotten a diabetes test either (although I have been tempted when I feel like you do right now) because I can't afford it. Just don't let it go too long. If you still feel like this after a week has passed I would see your doctor.
It is weird when you eat and then feel like you are starving to death. That happens to me every once in a while too and it is so strange. Try not to worry. I feel bad like I am freaking you out, but I am not meaning to! I just was letting you know what I thought it could also be. You might try looking up symptoms of type ii diabetes on the net and maybe symptoms of early pregnancy and see if either applies to what you are feeling. Let me know what happens, k?

Thx for the replies!!!

The hunger has gone away and soo has the dizziness and the urge to urinate has died down.But like u said..There phases right?But now for the past 4 days, everytime I finish eating something, I feel like vomitting, nauseous ..Or just like something's stuck in my throat and I feel like burping. And my appetite has become less instead of more due to the fact that I feel sick after eating.


About diabetes, come to think of it, I felt hunger after eating a full healthy meal yet sweets such as chocolate and candy would be filling.And I have such a sweet tooth.

Yeah, I think there are phases. I mean, it could have been nothing, but it wouldn't hurt to ask the doctor just to be sure. You could have just had a weird virus or something.
Some people with hypoglycemia feel full with candy and sweets. I am the opposite. It give me a buzz...I shake and feel sick and then about an hour later I crash and am so tired I can hardly stay awake. My doc said it was the worst thing to eat candy when my blood sugar gets low, and that I should eat protein that will turn into sugar and stabilize my system. But, other people's doctors tell them when they get out of whack to eat candy, so I guess it just depends on which way your body goes.
I honestly can't tell you what is wrong or not wrong. I can just say what it may be! So, if your symptoms stay bothersome then you should see a doctor. It wouldn't hurt. I am glad your other symptoms went away though!

I have no clue if im just overly stressed and worried to the point that im making myself sick or if its actually happening. As of today, the hunger after eating and the urge to urinate are back.As well as the urge to vomit after eating.The clumpy ball like discharge has re-emerged as well. I think I jinxed myself when I said some of the sypmtoms had dissappeared =( my period should be due on the 8th normally, I dont know if I should wait until then or to go see a doctor before then.

Re: Plz Need Advice!!!
Hey don't panic first of all. Stress about being pregnat can cause you to have pregnancy symtoms. There are months I put my self though the same thing you are going through. I sucks. Mine is because I want a baby and my mind plays tricks on me. So relax and calm down. You will have your period soon enough. And if not you will soon know either way. Good luck.

Yea im really stressed out abt it right now but even when I dont think abt it I find myself feeling sick..Wanting to vomit and thats when I start thinking again..I'll be going on with the days activities, then something happens to make me feel as if I have to vomit and i'll think abt it again. Also today, ive gotten a large amount of clear discharge, it keeps coming, it feels as if I was going through my period..Ive never had so much discharge. Could this happen if its been 3 weeks? Also ive felt really tired lately and had back pains today. U think all of this could be caused by stress cuz I would think that stress wouldnt cause me to have soo many of the symptoms. >___<

I really understand what u r goin throu. I am going through something simular. And the more I try not to think about it the more I have symtoms. I have never had so many symptoms in my life. I already have kids so I know what to look for. But because every pregnacy is totally different. And you go through different things. I never went through the same experience twice. U can take a test as early as 7 days before u r period. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Thx!Its comforting to know that some people understand and are there. My parents are totally against anything that may interfer with my education and 'future success' and my friends are all so focused and dedicated and I just dont think they would understand or accept the fact that I 'can' possible be pregnant or did anything to make me worry abt such thing.They are quite innocent and very strongly opinionated...And my boyfriend thinks im stressing for no reason >____<

anyways,whatw ere some of the symptoms u experienced?I am honestly scared..As each day progresses ive found more 'likely symptoms' that pop up..Once one goes away, another oen arises or resurfaces.After this ordeal, it dosnt even take long to decide, that I need to sort of my priorities and that caring for a child is too much for me to handle right now. I really hope that its all just in my head and that im not preggers.

Btw, has anyone ever had an excess amt of discharge prior to their period, I know during ovulation ..But its now about a week until I should get my period normally and ive never had so much discharge prior or after in my life!!!

Honestly, I don't think you have a thing to worry about. I am sure you're not pregnant, just in the future if you are gonna come in contact make him wear a condom. Thinking your pregnant & being worried can cause false symptoms, so really... Try to relax! :d

I just came back from the washroom and when wiping, I saw the slightest pink spot and so yes me being paranoid I went to check again 5 minutes later and there is the faintest amount of blood visible.My period normally isnt due until in exactly one week and 2 days but I really do feel as if it were coming..Backpains, mild cramping...But when my period comes it usually just comes and doesnt come in the smallest amount..I thought iw as seeing things it was soo faint but it is blood..Is this spotting?Should I be worried?I was startign to calm down up until now
