Does White Discharge With Cramps Imply Pregnancy?

Hi, Im currently 5 days late for my period yet once in i while there is a small amount of a thick whitish discharge. The last time I had sex was beginning of December 2010 and I had my period in both december and january. In addition to the discharge there is slight cramping plus a sharper pain in my lower left abdomen... I took birth control for a year and went off it in November. Nothing seemed to change in my cycle aside from a bit of a brownish discharge a few days after my period finished. I know I m not pregnant so I was wondering what could be wrong

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the white discharge and cramps doesn't indicate pregnancy.As you got the period after intercourse there is no chance of pregnancy.The white discharge might be physiological.If it is associated with itching or foul smelling then it might be due to infection.I suggest you to repeat the urine pregnancy test a week after missed period.
