Am I pregnant?

Okay well I had sex with my boyfriend about a week and a half ago, I was on my period & my period usually lasts 3 to 4 days, I had sex with him on the 2nd day of my period. After the 4th day of my period it started turning a brownish color & I got very worried. That lasted for 2 more days which I have never had a period to last 6 days. I really didn't pay attention to it until about 5 days after we had sex and I found it really hard to sleep at night, I felt nauseous and I couldn't sleep on my stomach, I also started feeling really hungry. Everytime I stood up I felt really dizzy. I thought to myself it was way to early to have pregnancy symptoms even if I was. So I looked it up and everything that was happening said it was a pregnancy symptom, it has now been a week and a half since, and I am now starting to experience back pain, and a white discharge coming from me. Sleepless nights are still happening, so I would really like to know am I pregnant, are these signs that I am, and how soon can I take a pregnancy test for the most accurate results?

I have had discharges before, but not as much ! And we used protection, but when I checked the outside of the condom, it was on my hand. If I am not likely to be pregnant, why are these symptoms happening.? It seems as if I only get the worst at night, I'm becoming bloated all the time now and I feel so tired, I just had my period so why am I having period like symptoms AFTER.? I'm just really worried because i haven't felt the same since we've had sex,

its very unlikely that you got pregnant during your period as you need to ovulate in order to get pregnant and you get your period about 2 weeks after you ovulate. your period may have lasted longer this time because you were having sex during that time or your cycle may just have been different this month. symptoms are not a way of diagnosing pregnancy, they only way to know if you are pregnant is to take a home pregnancy test if you have missed your period.
if you recently had your period, the discharge could be normal (all women have discharge at some point during their cycle) or it could be related to ovulation as discharge can be alot more noticeable during this time.
the best time to test if you are pregnant is to wait until you have missed your period and use first morning urine.
if you are not actively trying to conceive you should be using condoms.
