A member asked:

My last period took place on 2/2/15. i had sex 2/3/15. i started bleeding dark and heavy yesterday with heavy cramps. is this a miscarriage?

Guideline: If your periods are usually regular with cycles of about 28 to 30 days, ovulation would occur around Feb. 16. Since sperm survives no more than 5 days, pregnancy would be quite unlikely although not impossible. I feel that your obgyn can advise you best,however especially if your menstrual cycles are very irregular.
