Take the test: If you want to know if you are pregnant, take a test. In today's world you do not need to wonder if you are pregnant. Pregnancy tests are available at any pharmacy and in minutes you will have your answer. They can detect a pregnancy 7-10 days after conception. The best time to take one is when you miss your period.

Depends: It is not uncommon to have an abnormal period once. Stress strenuous exercise, pregnancy, and medical problem like diabetes or thyroid condition are a few reasons one might have repeated episodes of abnormal menses. See your md, if appropriate do a pregnancy test.
