The period ceases, or stops completely, while a woman is pregnant; any sign of bleeding or heavy bleeding could signal a problem.

Actually, yes, it would be possible for a woman to get pregnant while menstruating if that’s also when she was ovulating. Although this is a very rare occurance, some women’s cycles are irregular or out of phase enough that it could happen….

Is it possible for women to have their period while they’re pregnant?

Q: Please give as much detail as possible.My girlfriend takes birth control, however she was a week behind, and I always use a condom. I’m just kind of paranoid about having a child, as I’m nowhere near close to being ready to be a father. She was telling me that it was possible to have a period while being pregnant. From what she said, she gets her period about once every 3-4 months because of her birthcontrol pills. What are the chances of me getting her pregnant with condom use and birthcontrol pills even though she was a week behind? (She had been taking the pills at the time though)

A: In understanding the way the female body works, it is impossible to have a real period when you are pregnant. There may be some bleeding, but it is from the fertilized egg implanting or other issues such as injury or a sensitive cervix. When a woman ovulates, and an egg is not fertilized, it signals a period to start. The whole point of a period is to get rid of the nourishment that has built up in anticipation for an egg. No egg implanted=period. If an egg has implanted in the uterine wall, and a period happens, it would be flushed out along with the blood and tissue and would result in a miscarriage. Even on the off chance that the fertilized egg could still remain attached through this, it would have no further nourishment as everything it feeds on until the placenta is formed would be gone. Also many women claim to have their periods for many months into their pregnancies, and that is also physically impossible. When the pregnancy begins to develop, something called a mucus plug forms and effectively seals off the uterus from the “outside world” to prevent infections from reaching the uterus/baby. So there is no way then either that menstrual blood can escape. This link helps explain it all, and factually backs up my statements.

How can you tell the difference between a “pregnancy period” and a normal period?

Q: I have heard that some women can still get their period while they’re in their first few months ofpregnancy. How is this possible? I thought having your period was the ultimate sign that you were not pregnant. I’ve heard that the “pregnancy periods” are shorter and lighter. Are they always shorter and lighter? Are there any other distinctions between them and a regular period? My period was about 15 days late this time, and I had unprotected sex twice a week after I was due for my depo-provera shot. For awhile I was scared I was pregnant, but I got my period yesterday. However, hypothetically, could I still be pregnant if I am getting my period and it seems to be of the same flow (I’m a moderate bleeder, not heavy or light), maybe just a bit lighter, and it started out really light but is a tad heavier now. I have the pain and weakness that I usually get with my period. Also, my breasts feel heavier and more sore. Does this sound like a “pregnancy period” or a regular period?

A: I don’t remember all of the details because it was a long time ago, but with both of my children, I got what I thought was a period in the early part of the pregnancy. I think the dates were off enough so that I thought I was pregnant then I got what I thought was a period. The way I remember, it started out like the beginning of a period, sort of spotting, then a little heavier to approach normal, then stopped, so my regular was 5 – 6 days, these were about 2 days. I don’t know what the depo-provera shot is, but could that be the cause for your late period? Regardless, I hope you are happy with the outcome, and to put your mind at ease, try a home pregnancy test or see a Doctor. Best of luck!

Am I pregnant or is it side effects from my birth control?

Q: Okay so I have been taking birth control for a little over a year now and my dr. changed me to a different birth control a few months ago. A couple of weeks after switching birth controls I started experiencing nausea and morning sickness which is a possible side affect. Every morning it’s like clockwork the same time getting nautious and the other morning I did actually throw up. If I get hungry and don’t eat soon I tend to get nautious feeling also. I did get my last period but it was different than usual. Normally it comes a couple of days late and lasts only a few days being light. This time it came a couple of days early was heavier and lasted a week. Lately I have been hearing of women who still get their periods while they are pregnant so this is making me question if I am or not. Is there anyone who has experienced this or has any opinions?

A: You should go to your doctor and tell him about your concerns. It sounds like your body isn’t handling this new birth control well. I doubt you are pregnant. Either way, you should see your doctor. In the off chance you are pregnant, you need to be under a doctor’s care. More likely, you need a different pill.
