Probably not: That would not suggest a pregnancy. A pregnancy test would be an easy way to be sure.

No: If you miss a period and take a home pregnancy test, you're pregnant. The amount of bleeding or frequency of bleeding is almost always due to changes in hormones. If you had unprotected intercourse and are worried you might be pregnant, take a test. That's the quickest way to know. Good luck!

Pregnancy: Having a period is not a sign of pregnancy. However if there is a doubt just take a home pregnancy test. Take care!

Irregular periods: Irregular periods are one of the most common problems obgyns treat. If this is one time problem it usually resolves on its own. If this is a recurring problem you should be evaluated. Infections & hormonal changes can cause spotting. If there is a concern for pregnancy then do a home pregnancy test . There are many options available to help regulate the menstrual cycle. Schedule a visit.
