A member asked:
I had the flu yesterday and my period was 3 days late but got it last night while i was sleeping and its brown in color with very little red. pregnant?

Probably not, but...: If worried, can test. A urine pregnancy test done correctly gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have happened). If done sooner, a positive result is likely real, but a negative result may be due to testing too soon, and therefore lead to a repeat test. Otherwise, if a woman gets her next NORMAL regular period, then she is not pregnant.
