A member asked:

Had sex a wk before period and got a positive pregnancy test 2 weeks after. is that possible? or could pregnancy hav happen before that intercourse?

Dr. Robert Kwok answered

Maybe. Maybe not.: If already pregnant, that would mean the "period" was not a real menstrual period, because having a real menstrual period clears out the uterus... So having a real menstrual period means not pregnant at that time.
