How To Confirm Pregnancy?
I was wondering is it possible to still be pregnant if you had your period and it was heavy the first 2 days and stopped then was redish pink color for 2 days then completely stopped ? I had minimal pregnancy symptoms as well but some are the same right be fore I start my period ?

Hi,
Pregnancy during and just after periods is very rare but can occur. In order to avoid anxiety,I would suggest you to to take a pregnancy test after two weeks of sexual intercourse. Before two weeks,it may be difficult to detect pregnancy and false negative results may occur. Alternatively you can also take a blood beta HCG hormone test which is more sensitive than urine pregnancy test.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
