Hi i had sex on Thursday and i started bleeding on Friday, it's lighter than when I'm on my period. Im not due my period until next week. Is it possible that I could be pregnant? ?

Hi Chriissay19

If you are feeling worried I would suggest taking a pregnancy test, as a possible pregnancy would only have arisen from an earlier episode of unprotected sex. You will be able to get one from most pharmacies and supermarkets. Also it might be an idea to get checked out for STI’s as bleeding after sex can be because of an infection. You can get tested in your local Contraception and Sexual Health ( CASH) Clinic or with your own GP. You can find your nearest service here: nhs.uk/service-search .If you are having unprotected sex and do not intend to get pregnant then I would also suggest starting a form of contraception which you can obtain from the CASH clinic, your GP or a family planning clinic.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes

Katherine
