Patient: hi i am recently married in may 2015 and trying to conceive, last month i had very short and light periods of one and a half day , this month on 18 of August 2015 i got bleeding of three days it was not heavy , although my periods was due on 24 of this month but i got it earlier , i havnt had any pregtest yet, suggest me can i be pregnant? I am 5 2 and weight is 50 Kg,always have regular periods of 4 -5 days , i am fit and healthy otherwise. Doctor: Hi there,After going through your question, I am of the opinion that:1) Some women get little bleeding every month for 3 to 4 months of their pregnancy.2) However, that bleeding is very light and does not even fill one pad.3) Sometimes, when you start trying for pregnancy, there are hormonal changes which can cause a change in normal menstrual pattern.4) You can get a urine pregnancy test at home to just check whether you are pregnant. If that is negative, you can just sit back and relax. In case you miss your periods, you can repeat the urine pregnancy test or a blood test called serum beta HCGI hope this was helpful.Regards,Dr. Shikha Shah
