Is this a m/c or an odd period?

Question

I had unprotective sex on Jan 1 and my period was due on the 15th. I started having pregnancy symptoms dizzy, back hurt, a lot of head achs, but my breast were not sore. so I took hpt on the 12 and it came back a faint positive, the next day on the 13th I started to spot brown blood for two days, then bright red blood for two days, then back to brown spotting again for two days no clotting no cramping. I am normally pretty heavy bleeder. I took a hpt after that and it came up negative, and the pregnancy symptoms were gone. I went to the doc and he did a blood test and it came back neg. I am due for my period again in just a few days and I am having no signs of my period, nor pregnancy symptoms. I am confused on what is happing to me and my doc is not telling me much, just to wait for my next period to come. Just wondering has this happend to anyone else?

Answer 1

It sounds like you were pregnant, then had a miscarriage. This is very common among women. I think I have been pregnant many times in life, then miscarried it....resulting in a "late" period. Look up miscarriage on the pregnancy websites, and you will see how common it is. Ive also had a "real" miscarriage, at 8 weeks along. It hurt like heck, and my period did not return for 3 months.

I've done that before. Even when I haven't done anything I get really paranoid. The things you have to look at are: are they like this all the time? Are you taking antibiotics or under alot of stress because those are things that can contribute to late periods. You wouldn't start to have pregnancy symptoms until you were at least 4 or 5 weeks pregnant. My best advice is to get on "the wonder pill" lol. It fixes just about everything. Orthotricyclen lo is a very good contraceptive pill. The best pregnancy test is first response. make sure you get the three pack next time too because you might wanna test every week for three weeks because the first one or two can come up negative when they're really positive.

Answer 3

I have been down this road way to many times. I had a cycle, it stopped and I was pregnant only to experience a miscarriage. Then in October 06 I missed my period for 2 days, tested it was extremely faint. Then the next day I got brown discharge like old blood. Then it came normal. Then November was normal and I concieved for real. Only to experience another loss due to having a bacterial infection called PID...I would say if you have not seen your gyn in a while go and get a paps done just to make sure. At that time too they will determine better if you are pregnant or not.

Best wishes,

I think u got a false positive,since it was very faint it was probably just an evaporation line that pregnancy tests let off in many cases..this is common and a lot of women have noticed these...These were probably symptoms of pms as they tend to blow people off and people get confused,they can happen one month and not the next,i have also dealt with these..If the next test came out negative then just take it as u werent pregnant...
