I am having some bleeding and its way too early for my period but i am having heavy bleeding and no clotting. I had sex like a week ago and the guy did use protection but it could have broke or something. I heard that if you are pregnant you cant use a tampon but I am using one and its kind of comfortable. But I just need some advice on what may be happening and I dont have the money right now to buy a pregnancy test. I am only 17 I really need some advice..please help me thank you

Sabine answered Thursday June 28 2007, 1:39 am: That's completely not true that pregnant women can't bleed. Not true. Many women bleed with the change of hormones and with the implantation of the embryo into the uterus. Many women bleed when the pregnancy is not healthy for some reason and they are about to miscarry. Is it possible that you have been pregnant for a few weeks? Was last week your first time having sex?
I agree that the only thing to do is go see someone at a clinic or at Planned Parenthood.
You're probably not pregnant (if you're pregnant, you can use a tampon, but you shouldn't have to), but it would be best to have someone take a look to find out where the blood is coming from if it doesn't seem like a normal period. By the way, pregnancy tests are something like 2 for $10 at Target. Can your boyfriend contribute?
Please take care of yourself. It's probably nothing, but heavy bleeding between periods is sometimes a bad sign. I hope you go and find nothing but reassurance.

My ex gf tore a bit of her vagina (so weird to say to strangers) and made me take her to the doctor where he just said she had torn it.
It's just like any other cut, and it heels in a few days. [ DannyRoss's advice column | Ask DannyRoss A Question ]
dearL answered Wednesday June 27 2007, 11:14 pm: If your heavily bleeding, then it sounds like you are having an early period. Sometimes stressful events can cause your period be early or late. If you are having severe cramps or continue to bleed heavily, you need to see a doctor. Also, since you are now sexually active, you need to be examined by a gynocologist. Not only can they give you birth control pills (which are NOT a replacement for condoms because they do NOT protect from STD's), they will run a yearly for STD's, physical health, and signs of cancer. If your mature enough to have sex, then your mature enough to go to the doctor. If you can't afford a pregnancy test, how can you afford a baby? Go to the health department if you have to - they can get you what you need and they won't tell your parents. Remember that nothing is 100% and pregnancy and STD's are a real possibility now that you are sexually active. [ dearL's advice column | Ask dearL A Question ]
