A member asked:

I have a 26 day cycle. had sex 6 days before estimated ovulation day. for the first time, period came 3 days early, became 23 day cycle. am i pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pregnant ? : If bleeding started at "day 23", you ovulated on day 9, so if unprotected sex occurred on or around day 7-11, pregnancy can occur. If your period does not occur, wait about 10 days and get a serum HCG test to be certain about pregnancy.
