Maybe: If you are having unprotected sex, your chances of being pregnant in any given month are 15-25%. You could easily be pregnant now. Sometimes you can have bleeding in pregnancy that looks like a period but isn't. The easiest way to know is to go to the drugstore and get a home pregnancy test.
