What are the common mistakes people make when trying to get pregnant?
Common mistakes:
-Not being educated. Most women know very little about their cycles and how to conceive. Read the book: Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler. The book explains your cycle, charting and how to get pregnant. If you don't have sex at the right time in your cycle, you will not get pregnant.
-Having sex to much. You should only have sex once every 24 hours during your fertile phase. Your fertile phase is the 2-3 days before the day of ovulation and the day you ovulate. If the man has low sperm count, then you should have sex every other day during the fertile phase.
-Using lubricant. When having baby sex, do not use lube (KY Jelly, astroglide, etc) it renders sperm immobile. If you want to use lube, use preseed. Preseed promotes a sperm friendly atmosphere. http://www.preseed.com/
-Using douch or scented tampons. Do not douche or use scented tampons. They alter the acidity of the vagina.
-Having oral sex when having baby sex. Do not have oral sex when you are having baby sex. Saliva can kill sperm.
-Not taking prenatal vitamins and folic acid when you start trying to conceive. It is best to start taking prenatal vitamins and 1000mg of folic acid at least tree months prior to conception. This is best to prevent birth defects and promote a healthy pregnancy.
-Stressing out. Letting trying to get pregnant take over your life. This will not help your cause. Do not let trying to get pregnant take over your life.
-Taking pregnancy tests to early. It takes the fertilized egg around a week and up to 10 days to implant into the uterus. Once the egg is implanted then your body starts releasing pregnancy hormones HCG. Prior to implantation you are not pregnant. Prior to implantation your body does not even know that you conceived. It takes a while for the HCG to build in your system. Your body's reaction to HCG is what causes pregnancy symptoms. Home pregnancy test look for HCG to conclude pregnancy. You must have enough HCG in your urine to register a positive. There is no point in taking home pregnancy tests prior to when your period should be arriving. It is a waste of money and sanity because there is always the possibility you could be pregnant and it is not registering because you don't have enough HCG in your system yet. You also need to take the home pregnancy test with your first morning's urine. This will have the highest level of HCG.

To not let your period come this month, you could combine two packets of your 21-day birth control pills, if you are prescribed them.
You're most likely to ovulate on the 13th of the month (two weeks before menstruation) however unless you use fertility awareness methods you cannot know for sure when you are ovulating or fertile. If you want to avoid pregnancy always use birth control.
I am 13 years old and I am late on my period but I am still a virgin?
This is normal.
Anything up to 7 days variation from your normal menstrual cycle is normal, but even if it is later than this it's still absolutely fine because irregular cycles are normal at your age - your body may not be mature enough to ovulate regularly thus you will not menstruate regularly, and as your body is changing this can effect your menstrual cycles too. Don't expect regular cycles until you reach adulthood.
When would someone ovulate if her period is every 21 days?

Can you have your period but not bleed and you are for sure NOT pregnant?
It is quite common to miss a period and there can be a lot of different reasons for it. Although pregnancy is probably the most common cause of missing a period, there are lots of other causes as well. Some common causes are: Stress, losing or putting on a lot of weight or anything which will cause hormonal changes. However, there are occasionally other more serious causes for a missed period such as STIs or polycystic ovaries syndrome so it is worth getting checked out if none of the other causes such as stress relate to you. If you miss more than one period then you should definitely see your GP.
Since you haven't started your period, then, you haven't reached puberty and I doubt you really have breasts yet. To have breasts you need to have reached puberty because it is the hormones that your body uses to develop breasts. I am guessing you are feeling fatty tissue which is perfectly normal. Go to see a doctor just to be sure.
hypomenorrhea
What causes heavy and light spotting 2 weeks before your cycle with cramps and nausea?
Hormonal imabalce, pregnancy, birth control pills etc. See your doctor for a blood test.
Is it normal to have two days of light spotting and the next two days light menstrual flow?
The answer is what is normal for you?
Most women have a period that is between 5-7 days. Their first day will be medium flow, followed by two heavy days and three light days. But it is individual. All women will have a light period at some stage. What you need to decide is if this is normal for you, and if it is abnormal is there something that may've caused it to be like this? Could you be pregnant? Could you have contracted an STD? Have you been ill?
If you are not showing any other symptoms, I would not worry about it unless it happens again next month. If you think there is something else, see a doctor.
Answeryes i was told by my doctor you still can be pregnant with light spotting and light bleeding--it happen to me and I'm pregnant--good luck but go to your doctor to see if you're pregnant--good luck AnswerIt can happen if you are pregnant. I recommend you take a HPT to find out for sure.
