can you still have your period if your pregnant?

Answer 1

it is very rare....but, it can happen!

Answer 2

Yes you can! Some pregnant people spot their whole pregnancy. In some rare cases, some have a real period the whole time, and then you have some women, some spotting here and there. The best thing to do is, if you think that there is a possibility that you could be pregnant, have a test taken as soon as you can. You body produces certain hormones when you are pregnant ( HCG ) thr further into pregnancy you get the higher the levels of that hormone. Purchase an EPT and use you first morning urine. Since urine is more concentrated when you first wake up, you stand a better chance of getting accurate results....if the test reads negative, wait 2 weeks and test again. Or do like I did and see a doctor and have a blood test done...then you will know for sure...TAKE IT FROM ME!... I have had 6 kids. Please don't be fooled by some of these wrong answers about you not being able to have a period during pregnancy. BECAUSE YOU CAN! :)

Question: Can you be pregnant and still get your period?

Answer: Well, no, you can't get your period once you're pregnant — once your body starts producing the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and your pregnancy is established, your menstrual cycle is interrupted and normal periods stop. But you may have bleeding or spotting during pregnancy that can seem like a period.

Some pregnant women have what's called "implantation bleeding" that can happen around the time their period is due, and they may mistake that bleeding for a period. This spotting may be caused by the fertilized egg burrowing into the blood-rich lining of the uterus, a process that starts just 6 days after fertilization, and it's generally a lot lighter than a typical period — just a day or two of very light spotting.

If you're pregnant and you're not sure when your last period started, this can make establishing a due date difficult for your healthcare provider. If you have any doubts, your provider can feel how big your uterus is with a pelvic examination and estimate how far along you are. In most cases, your provider will also order an ultrasound before the middle of your pregnancy to measure the size of your developing baby and clarify exactly when the baby is due.

Many women who bleed a little bit in early pregnancy deliver without any complications, but bleeding can also be a cause for concern. It may be the first sign of a miscarriage. If so, your symptoms probably will go on to include heavy cramping and bleeding much heavier than a normal period.

Abnormal bleeding can also be a sign of ectopic or tubal pregnancy. If you have sharp pains in your lower abdomen, especially if the pain is only on one side, you should see your practitioner right way to find out if you have an ectopic pregnancy. A tubal pregnancy can be life-threatening, and sometimes the only symptom is bleeding around the time your period is expected. Often, the period may be lighter than usual. Sometimes a home pregnancy test will be negative, and the pregnancy can only be detected by checking blood hCG levels.

If you bleed at all early in your pregnancy, it's best to notify your doctor or midwife to get specific instructions. She may suggest getting a blood test to check your hCG levels or order an ultrasound to evaluate your condition more thoroughly

Answer 4

yes you can it should be very light and spotting though not a heavy cycle.But you should still go to your doctor. Unless you mean like you think you might be pregnant in that case even if your on your period you should go to your clinic and get a pregnancy test. If you don't have insurance go to a free clinic and they can help you out they will even get you started on the insurence process. Tell you where you need to go and everything. But if you are pregnant and have already go to the doctor and they told you that you were then you should go back to the doctor. But I've know girls that were on there periods the whole nine months they were pregnant and everything was fine. But like I said go check it out just to be safe.

Answer 5

Yes you can. I had my period for nine months while pregnant with my son. It lasted seven days just like a regular period and my bleeding wasn't any lighter than when I wasn't pregnant. My son was born full term and was a perfectly healthy 8 lb. 2 oz baby. The only reason I even knew I was pregnant was because I went in for my annual.

Answer 6

YES!
Many women do have their periods during pregnancy. Although it is different for different women, the process usually occurs as either spotting or having your period lighter and lighter as time passes. But some people can have their full period and some people don't have it at all. It depends, but basically, it is very very possible and probable.

Answer 7

Yes absolutely! It depends on who you are, my grandmother had her period all nine months, and she had four kids. Also some women have two uterus' and don't even know. It could also be the shape. Something I have looked into if you couldn't tell.
