Okay, I'm going to try to make this quick. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I am 26 years old. I have a fairly moderate to severe case of endometriosis for which I had laproscopic surgery about 2 years ago. In July my fiance and I had unprotected sex on the 6th and final day of my period. During the following two weeks I was experiencing early pregnancy sypmptoms. I took a test about 2 weeks after intercourse which was negative. I assumed the symptoms were all in my head because I tend to be a little paranoid. my July period was only about 2 days late, and then it came. However, my August period came 6 days early! I'm usually fairly regular. Now, I've started my Sept. period another week early (total of two weeks earlier than my normal time.) I'll have very light spotting for the first two days or so, and then it will become a little heavier, and then it ends. I'm a teacher at an all girl's school, and went back to work in August - could my period just be getting in sinc with all the other females I'm around?

Or could I be pregnant, and due to the endometriosis still be bleeding during the pregnancy?

Why would my period be coming a week early? It's never done that before. I'm a little worried, but don't necessarily feel any more pregnancy symptoms, so I don't really think I'm pregnant.

Has anyone had similar experiences?

Should I go to my gyno?

Thanks...
