Maybe. Maybe not.: It can be hard to tell if a woman is pregnant because some of the symptoms seen in early pregnancy can also happen in non-pregnant women. A urine pregnancy test gives a reliable result if done correctly. One can test about 3 weeks after sex (when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. An ob-gyn doctor can evaluate any persistent or worrisome symptoms.

Possibly: You can miss a period for several reasons. Pregnancy is certainly a possibility. Doing a home pregnancy test is a simple way to know. It is also possible that you didn't ovulate. This is another common cause of missed periods and spotting. If you are not pregnant but the pattern persists over a few months, you should get it checked out.
