What Causes Intermenstrual Bleeding?
I had my period on October 11, for 5 days my normal, then on October 23, I started to have light spotting then dark red with little blood clots, and now as of yesterday October 25 it stopped. My Bf and I are sexually active and don t use contraceptives, could I possibly be pregnant? Right before I got my actual period I was hot, feeling like I was going to get sick and peeing a lot, still till this day I am. I don t have insurance and don t want to go to the Er. Help

Hello,
I can understand your concern. As you and your partner do not use contraception, there are chances of your being pregnant. The bleeding you noticed 12 days after your last menstrual cycle could be implantation bleeding, bleeding which occurs after conceiving.
To make sure if you are pregnant or not, you should take a home pregnancy test. Purchase the kit (Prega news) from the medical store and urinate on the indicator area of the stick. The indicator area may show (+) or (-) sign for postive or negative pregnancy test, respectively.
If you are not pregnant and keep getting irregular periods then you might have to visit a gynecologist for physical examination and further investigations regarding the cause of irregularities and its management.
I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. Take care.
