My friend thought she might be pregnant and scheduled a doctors appointment, but she was relieved when she received her period. She called the doctor to cancel when the nurse said she should still come in because you can get a period the first little while.

Now, if it's been 6 months and you're still getting a period, then I doubt your pregnant.

But why don't you just pick up a test and find out yourself. After 2-3 negative tests taken about a week apart, I'd be pretty sure that you're not pregnant. And if you're really still nervous, take a trip to the doctor (can't afford it - go to the free clinic at your local hospital).

If you're young and are afraid of getting caught with a store pregnancy test, know that it's easy to hide. Go to the grocery store with your parents, bring a big purse, and tell your parent you saw a friend and want to go chat for a minute, while picking up the test, buying it, and hiding it in your purse.

If you're driving age but still in high school and under your parents insurance, tell your parent you aren't feeling well, go to the doctor, and ask to go in the room by yourself, that way you can tell your doctor the real reason why you're there and they can give you the test. Doctor/Patient confidentiality makes it illegal for them to tell your parents that you needed a pregnancy test.

Sorry for all these excessive details, but I wanted to cover the bases on how you can just take some sort of test and find out rather than worrying yourself sick.

Realistically, your chances are slim of having a regular period and being pregnant, but you should just calm your nerves and take a test.

i was one of those women, i had my normal or what i thought was my normal period but it was in fact a diffrent vaginal bleeding that can happen during pregnancy and i thought it was my real period because i had cramps, few weeks later i took a test out of curiosity because i had a few symptoms and i was 2 months pregnant. i would say your chances if you are sexually active and the guy cums inside you i would say your chances are 50/50 at least thats what happened in my case, since your on the pill though that effects your chances quit a bit birth control is about 98% effective or something like that so you should be good, although i know a baby who was conceived while there mother was on the pill so if your worried about it a week after your period take a test just to be on the safe side
