Period During Pregnancy?
Posted: 10-30-05 10:24am

Hi I think I may be pregnant and I am very worried, is it possible that you could still be pregnant if you had your period? I had my period but very little came out and thats it no more... Is it possible?

Hi

Hey it is not possible to have your "period" if you are pregnant. Although you can still experience bleeding which is also known as "implantation bleeding" that many people may mistake for their regular period. The difference with implantation bleeding is it is lighter, sometimes pinkish, light red or even brownish in color. It doesn't last as long as your usual menstrual period, and if it is in fact implantation bleeding you shouldn't use the same amount of pads or tampons. I hope this helped you, again i'm not a doctor this is just what I have read about online and stuff. Goodluck to you.

Don't use tampons if you think you might be pregnant. It can cause infection.

Bleeding does occur during pregnancy. It could be implantation bleeding from what you described.

Take a pregnancy test to make sure.
