Confused And Worried.

I had unprotected sex last week. I was
not sure when I was supposed to start my
period, but I assumed it was coming up.
There was no condom, so I assume he used
the pull-out method (which really doesn't
count) but I was um... Drunk, and i'm not
totally sure.
I started my period last night, but
instead of my usual period (which is very
thick, dark, and heavy) i'm having a very
light, bright-red period.
I'm really worried, should I be? In the
back of my head, I keep thinking there's
something different (my body is like,
freaking out on me). When is the soonest
I can take a pregnancy test? Which test
do you suggest?
Should I disregard my feelings since I am
having a period?

You know you body better then anyone.
Give me step b step what happened. When
was you last normal period when you
ovulated and thus when you had unprotected
sex. Then we can determine if you could
be preggo.

My last normal period was probably the
middle of last month, my sister and I have
our periods around the same time and now
i'm learning my sister isn't even on her
period yet. (though, in all honesty she
totally could be and I don't notice, if I
asked her she'd ask me why I wanted to
know... And my family does so not need to
know about this right now)
this morning I woke up and my period
completely stopped, and at this point
normally, it'd be really heavy. There was
just brown blood on the very tip of my
tampon.
Even stress and diet has always had me
with a normal period, so i'm not at all
sure why it's weird now.

If it were last week you will have to wait
about 2 weeks for test, then if neg and
still no "normal" period try again in
another week. Sounds like you might be
though. Changing hormones are so
strange, and different for every woman.

Does anyone have a suggestion of which
test I should buy? I'm totally new to
this whole thing, and honestly at this
point in my life (starting college) I
really didn't think that something like
this would happen to me... =_=

They say first response is best. I think
4 days be4 missed period. But remember
all preg different as are all women. So
a few tests a week apart or your period
coming, will tell the truth. Me and my
daughter had too wait until 3 weeks after
missed period to find out on the tests. I
understand 22 years between us but still
the same even with medical advancement.

First response is great, I used it and it
works up to 5 days before your period is
to show. If not ept is also another
great one, but this one is only able to
pick up the preg hormone right on or after
yor period is to show

Ept is a good one also. I took that one
like 9 days later and it came out
positive. That was even before I was to
start my period. The when time for
period to come, I had all the symptoms of
starting my period and I bled just like
you did. Only I don't think I did a whole
day.
Good luck!!

Cvs pharmacy has best test according to a
website I visited. Soonest and most
accurate test, there was only one other
but I cant remember the name.

It could have been. I just know they
listed 2 that were accessible to me and
early--with least amount of hormone.
They also mentioned first response but too
expensive for me.

So the cvs bran actually picks up the
hormone if the hcg levels are low

I suggest that you just go to the doctor
for the best results possible.

Sorry for the double posting...
Last night I couldn't sleep because of
horrible nausea, this morning it lasted
'til about 10am, then went away and came
back with some cramps. I went to the
bathroom and noticed I was bleeding, not a
lot of blood, but it was fresh and pretty
red.
It only lasted for about 20 minutes.
Is this normal? I'm starting to hope
maybe this is a sign my period's just
wonky and i'm not pregnant, but I really
am confused.

They say implantation bleedin occurs in
some women I had it only once with my
second child way after I found out I was
pregnant. The doct just said not to
worry it was implantation bleeding. For
some it can happen just when you would of
been expecting you period. Take and test
and see. I hear the cvs brand is an
excellent choice
