Unprotected Sex & Period: Possible Pregnancy with Symptoms?

Yes, it is possible to still be pregnant if you had unprotected sex and got your period, even if you have six of the symptoms of pregnancy. This is because some women experience what is known as a "breakthrough bleed" during early pregnancy. A breakthrough bleed is similar to a menstrual period, but it is lighter and shorter. It can occur due to the hormonal changes that happen during pregnancy.

If you are concerned that you may be pregnant, it is important to take a pregnancy test. Pregnancy tests can be purchased at most drug stores and are easy to use. If you have any questions about the results of your pregnancy test, you should talk to your doctor.

* Missed period

* Fatigue

* Vomiting

* Breast tenderness

* Food cravings

* Mood swings
