15 days ago, I had sexual relations without penetration, but there was some semen on the outer lips which I cleaned. We also had anal sex where he came inside, and I cleaned myself afterward. This happened during my fertile days. 6 days ago, I had slight spotting that disappeared. According to my cycle, I should have my period today, but I'm worried about implantation bleeding. I took three early pregnancy tests, all negative, but I'm unsure if it's too early. I'm also experiencing swollen and sensitive breasts. I took another test this morning, which was also negative. I'm concerned because everything seems to indicate pregnancy. What should I do?
