Question Title: Am i pregnant? Helppppp!!!!!

Forum: The Maternal and Child Health Forum
Topic: Pregnancy - Normal

To whom it may concern,

A week ago I was being intimate with my boyfreind for the first time and the condom slipped off. We had sex like two days after my period ended (if this may be of any help). Now it has been maybe 5 days later and i have noticed that i have a yellow discharge, it's not thick and i''m not itching........ is this an indication that i might be pregnant. I'm a college student and this was my first time. I don't feel comfortable asking my mother over the telephone. Could someone reply.

P.S I'm an NCAA collegiate track runner, might the discharge have something to do with my hard workouts

This is urgent, please let me know...... it would be greatly appreciated

Dear Tiffany:
Two days following the completion of menstruation is a low fertility point in the menstrual cycle.
A vaginal discharge is not a symptom of pregnancy. However, it can be a symptom of infection (including sexually transmitted disease and a slipped condom means protection against disease also slipped).
Exercise in itself is an unlikely explanation for discharge.

A student health physician, and often a gynecologist is a resource at student health, can sort out the cause of the discharge and provide further counselling about "morning after pills" that are useful in this setting.
