Unsure what this bleeding is

Unread post by cheesecheese »

Hey there, my period has been 2-2.5 weeks late

and I've posted before where Heather informed me of the sexual activities I undertook with my boyfriend presented no/very little risk, but recently tried anal but he didnt ejaculate.

I just bled but it was extremely light and not as heavy as it usually is and did not experience any cramps (tho i only experience them sometimes), could this be some sign of pregnancy, another type of worry or is it just a really late period?

We can't know what's going on with your body when you don't, truly.

But by all means, why don't you give this a couple of days and see if the bleeding continues and develops into something that feels more familiar to you in terms of a period? As you know from having periods in the past, how a period starts can be all over the place, including very light flow, or even having some flow one day, then none the next, then more the day after that.
