Hi.
If you have had unprotected sex around the 1st week of feb i suggest you take a test.If its negative,then your period could have come early.Just wait it out.I dont believe infection to be a factor here.

thank you for replying to my post, im not too sure wether i did or didnt. im in a long term relationship so we are careful, i only get this discharge when i wipe its not enough for me to put a towel on or even a tapon. ive never had this before and its finally stopped today, so its been happending for about 4 days now. Im due on tomorow and i havent been getting any signals of me coming on which i usally do, just a little cramping on my left side. this couldnt be sign of pregnancy could it?
OBGYN Dr. Rhea Chanda's  Response
There could be a chance if you had only spotting when you are supposed to be due.However,since you arent sure when you had unprotected sex there is a window of doubt here.If you dont have a proper period within the next 7 days to need to take a test as soon as possible.
