I know I shoulnd't have but last night I did a douch, a couple hours later, I had what felt like period cramps all night and this morning I woke up REALLY dizzy and it hasn't stopped. I've also had a headache, that i don't normally get. There is a chance that I may be pregnant, so I am trying to desifer the difference. Is it possible to get cramps like that and being dizzy from a douch?

First off, douching does NOT act as a form of birth control! Sperm swim way too fast to be able to "wash" out.
Douching is just bad for you. I've never done it because I heard it can dry you out. But your symptoms sound a little odd, so you really should see your doctor.

You should call a doctor. If you are pregnant, douching is absolutely not what you want to do. There will probably be a toll free number on the product packaging. Call it immediately - you may have done something to your body - some internal damage. If you are trying to end a pregnancy, this would not be the way to do it - if you are really violent in your douching you could cause internal bleeding - which could result in your death without you even knowing it's happening.
Again, call a doctor or nurse immediately - they are, by law, required to keep everything confidential. If you are too weak to go anyplace, call 911. Don't just wait for something to happen. While this may not be serious, it very well could be!!! Take care..

You should like douch, then after that DOUCHE. Do it like at least 7 times a day to get rid of the fishy smell that girls who dont douche have. That should fix it.

You have possibly got an infection - douching has never been big over here - its soooo not recommended. Go see your doctor - good luck

on about.com, it says that after douching if you have any of the symptoms you just stated, that you needed to see a doctor because it could be a symptom of other problems that the douche can irritate, so I would suggest if they did not subside to please see a doctor

I think you may just be getting your period. Eat and drink some healthy and soothing things today and hope you feel better.

maybe you should have tried a pregnancy test instead of the douch first

Douching is a big fat no-no
The vagina is self-cleaning.
