period unusually different..could i be pregnant?

This period I only had it for 2 days. I usually have it for 5 or 6 days. It was really heavy though those two days and had really bad cramping. I took a pregancy test today like 4 days after it ended completely and it read negative. The past couple of weeks I have been getting really bad hot flashes, like my face turning bright red for an hour or so. I don't know whats going on, maybe my hormones are really messed up or something. I had unprotected sex a few days before my period. Does anyone have any idea why this could be going on?

Re: period unusually different..could i be pregnant?

any chance it could be menopause? It can last for 10 years and can start in your early 40's.

Re: period unusually different..could i be pregnant?

A friend of mine once was in a similar situation. She had unprotected sex and her period was late and barely there and MUCH different than usual. Turns out she wasn't pregnant and it was just a coincidence. So maybe that's the same case, but of course, if you continue to feel strange I'd see a doctor and take a test there or take another brand test. I agree that if you are in the age range, it COULD be menopause, but if you are not that age, is there any medication you are taking? I used to take anti-depressants and when I stopped taking them, I would get hot flashes and get night sweats all the time. And of course, like you said, it could just be hormones. Just to ease your mind, I'd try taking another test soon or take one at a doctor's office. If it's not too late, you can always take the morning after pill, but I'm assuming it's been over 72 hours since the unprotected sex.

Re: period unusually different..could i be pregnant?

First of all i'm definitely not old enough for menopause..i'm only 20. And i'm not on any medication so i think it was just hormones. I don't have them anymore so i think i'm fine. I'm still going to take another test in a couple weeks just to be sure...thanks
