Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Symptoms of pregnancy are usually experienced from 4 weeks onwards. This coincides with the missed period. Hence, the sleepiness you are experiencing currently cannot be attributed to conception as it is too early to detect.

Please wait for at least a week after ovulation to assess the serum beta-hCG titers to confirm/exclude pregnancy. If you have been checking basal body temperature from the day one of the cycle, ovulation is indicated by a rise in the temperature of half-a-degree and the rise is persistent in case of conception.

Hope you find this information helpful. Please let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Shanti V.
