	Answer by Dr Bobby V, MD (doctor) on Sat 26, Apr 2008 02:52pm: Hi Escarlet, There have been isolated case reports of pregnancy resulting from sexual contact on any one day of the menstrual cycle. So, is it possible that you are pregnant: Yes, it is theoretically possible. The bleeding that followed may not be menstrual bleeding. In early pregnancy, some spotting is common. Is is likely that you are pregnant? No, it is highly unlikely that you are pregnant, especially if you got your periods on the expected day, and if the nature/pattern of flow was similar to your earlier periods. You can easily confirm this using a do-it-yourself urine pregnancy test at home. I suggest that you educate yourself about sexual health, contraception, and sexually transmitted diseases. Wish you all the very best.

Unfortunately it ended up being an early miscarriage later on but yes it is possible. Just as the expert advised make sure you do a home pregnancy test and if is negative but you still worried go to a clinic nearby almost all cities have a free pregnancy testing clinic where they can confirm it with blood HCG test. Good luck.
