So my last period was on Aug 10, and on August 23 my boyfriend fingered me and gave me oral sex. He never touched himself that i know of, never ejaculated and his pants never came off. Today when i got home i found traces of a possible period starting and i read online that this could be a sign of pregnancy if your period is starting to come early. I have been experiencing a lot of burning and itching on my vaginal area to what i think is a yeast infection but now I'm scared that i somehow got pregnant! Please help!

My question is more along the lines of: Does an early period mean you could be pregnant?

In that post, there are a handful of links we ask users to first read: information we already have about many of these questions.
And one of those links (the Chicken Soup one, I believe) includes talking about this. As well using the search function on the main site will show you at least a few places where we have discussed this already.
And as we explain in the URL I gave you, and elsewhere, we certainly make clear that a pregnancy test is what verifies a pregnancy, and that "symptoms" or things like this people worry are, aren't a sound way to try and figure out pregnancy regardless. We also explain in that URL and may other places what presents a risk in the first place, and how it's not sound to ask about a possible pregnancy without having engaged in the things that can cause one.
