Is It Possible To Be Pregnant And Still Have Light Menstruation?

I had a "slip up" about 4 weeks ago with my boyfriend. I had my period last week but it was shorter than usual, just not much shorter. I took a pregnancy test last night (something just told me to) and it said positive

I am experiencing mild cramping. Is this possible? I had a period...... its just freaking me out a little

any suggestions?

Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic.
I have gone through your query.
I think I have understood your concern, I will try to suggest you the best possible treatment options.
1] Firstly, if you had unprotected sex acts; you have all chances of being pregnant.
2] As you say, your urine test is positive, but you are having scanty menstrual bleeding and cramping; there is possibility of ectopic pregnancy.
It's a serious condition that needs expert, urgent care.
3] I will suggest you to get urgent USG to rule out ectopic pregnancy.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you good health.
