A member asked:

Can you get your period during pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes and NO: A normal period completely flushes the contents of the uterus and would end the pregnancy. But you can have heavy spotting which may be very similar to a light period during the first couple months of the pregnancy.
