Hey all. For starters, I woke up this morning with a larger than normal glob of snotty discharge. I’ve had a bit of an increase for the last week and a half-ish. I am also having a pregnancy scare currently so I don’t know whether it’s that, I have a UTI, it’s normal, etc.

Symptoms (as of right now):
- Snotty discharge / kind of watery-looking (thick and sticky but otherwise quite watery and clearer)
- Light cramping (I think? I’ve had leg pain for the last few days so I don’t know if that’s causing what I think are cramps)
- Hurts a LITTLE when I pee (mostly at the opening / my bladder but I have been wiping/peeing a bit more often so that could cause the pain)

No itching and no odor though.

The last time I had sex was 14 days ago when I missed my pill (hence the scare). I am also mid-cycle for my period right now (due for my period in a little less than 2 weeks). I’m just confused because I never have this much discharge, but I’d say it seems like it looks like my regular discharge about this time.

Pregnant or ovulation maybe? I’m on progestin-only birth control so I know it’s still possible to ovulate and I wouldn’t know when I would if I do.

Thank you for the help!

I’ve never had this much discharge in one sitting before (I woke up and went to the bathroom) and it’s also quite sticky, almost snot-like. For context as well, I’m also going through a pregnancy scare right now so I don’t know if maybe I am? I have not tested yet since I just hit 14 days after sex and I was going to wait and see if symptoms presented more than just what I can brush off as my health anxiety.

I usually get quite a bit of discharge but not this. And usually I get worse discharge towards the middle of my cycle (now) or around my period (2 weeks-ish from now).

Hello, all. Please bear with me as I have bad anxiety.

I am 19F for context. A week ago (last Tuesday), I missed a progestin-only (Deblitane) birth control pill, but I did not realize until Thursday night. I took it normally Monday beforehand and then normally on Wednesday (so not doubling up on the missed dose) but I had sex twice on Tuesday (pullout method was used at least). I started spotting very lightly but with fairly bad cramps on Friday and then stopped. Today, I am barely spotting (waiting to see if that changes) but I have been cramping; kind of feels like my usual period cramps but I’m not due for my period until mid May. I don’t know if the hormonal shifts could be causing me to possibly be getting my period soon? I wouldn’t say I’m nauseous, I get bad stomachaches due to anxiety so it’s a little hard to differentiate and my boobs are not very tender, they don’t really hurt unless I sit there and squeeze the life out of them. I feel like I’ve been urinating a little more often, but I think that’s been me overthinking since it hasn’t been affecting my daily routine / I’ve been more hydrated.

I have done some Googling and I have also called my OB so I just want some second opinions if possible. I know it’s probably still way too early to know anything but I am very nervous. Thank you.
