Question 1

are symptoms for pregnancy and period are alike? we been trying to conceive we tried for six months now, need help more chance to conceive pls

Accepted Answer

See a gyn: If your socialized system will allow you to see a doctor for this concern, I suggest you do so.  Furthermore, with pregnancy tests being cheap and readily available, I recommend you not rely on "symptoms," to determine whether you are pregnant.

Question 2

10 days late with irregular period. how do you tell the difference of pregnancy and period and ovulation?

Accepted Answer

Cycle questions: Basically you ovulate  14 days before the first day of your next period which is when the egg comes out of the ovary.  If you do not get pregnant  then the lining of the uterus sloughs and you get your period   If you conceive your period does not come and you are pregnant. If your periods are irregular you ovulate at different intervals.  I hope this helped

Question 3

how can i tell the difference between pregnancy symptoms and period symptoms?

Accepted Answer

Difficult: It is often difficult to separate them as they are both associated with hormonal changes. In doubt, proceed with a pregnancy test and avoid potential teratogenic medicines and/or habits until you know that you are not pregnant.

Question 4

difference between spotting during pregnancy and during period.

Accepted Answer

Emergency: Any bleeding in pregnancy is an emergency and is not expected.  If there is any spotting then the OB should be contacted urgently if a female is pregnant. Viable pregnancy stops vaginal bleeding.

Question 5

have all pregnancy symptoms and period was 2 days late then it only lasted 2 days still have pregnancy symptoms but pregnancy test is negative?

Accepted Answer

See an OB GYN: Please do not diagnose yourself.  Seek out a competent doctor to diagnose your condition and to ease your mind.  Good luck and feel better...

Question 6

do early pregnancy cramps and period cranks differ?

Accepted Answer

Not much: Cramps coming from the uterus feel the same often, so you should get a pregnancy test if you're ever worried about it.

Question 7

i just had a chemical pregnancy and my period seems to be coming to an end already... am i able to try again right away?

Accepted Answer

Safer to wait: There is a greater risk of another pregnancy loss if you get pregnant too soon. It would be better to take your prenatal vitamins and wait 3-6 months before trying to conceive again. Best wishes for a healthy baby soon.

Question 8

my boyfriend and i just dry humped naked and he ejaculated near my entrance..  should i be worried of pregnancy? and my period is in 10 days

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy risk?: Any ejaculation near the entrance to the vagina can allow sperm to travel to the cervical canal, and allow the chance for pregnancy.  If your period is "due" in 10 days, you are probably safe, but if your period is delayed by a week, get a serum HCG test to make sure you are not pregnant.

Question 9

i noticed a very light small pink spot in the morning when i went to toilet. its not about pregnancy and my period finished 2weeks ago. what's that?

Accepted Answer

Blood-tinged mucus...: What you saw most likely was some blood-tinged mucus.  Your cervical/vaginal mucus can be thick mid-cycle and sometimes will be tinged with blood.  It usually isn't something serious.  Best wishes!

Question 10

i had sex on 14th september and i''ve had symptoms of pregnancy and no period from then till 18th november now i have a heavy period but still symptom?

Accepted Answer

Miscarriage?: Possibly a case of miscarrage. Very common. Mostly due to a chromosomal issue in fetus. Talk to pcp.
