Answer 1

No: Periods stop when pregnancy occurs. Bleeding at any point in pregnancy is not normal. You should be evaluated by your doctor to check the status of your pregnancy.

Answer 2

Technically no: You do not ovulate when you are pregnant, and do not have normal periods. But it is not uncommon to have some bleeding during pregnancy that can be somewhat like a period. That is not considered normal, and you should talk with your doctor if you are pregnant and have any bleeding.

Answer 3

No: Although there is potential for bleeding during pregnancy; periods do not occur at this time.

Answer 4

Being Pregnant: Any bleeding in pregnancy is abnormal, unexpected and an emergency. Viable pregnancy stops vaginal bleeding.

No: It is not possible to menstruate while pregnant. Many women have isolated vaginal bleeding while pregnant, that's common: but it's not menstruation, and not your period. Anyone who says so doesn't understand the endocrinology of menstruation, that's pure myth. i be helpful. If you are concerned about pregnancy a home test may be helpful.

No: A normal menstrual period won't occur during pregnancy. If you're pregnant and have vaginal bleeding, notify your obstetrician.
