Are Light Vaginal Spotting, Diarrhea And Sweaty Palms Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

my doctor said he thinks im pregnant, but it is too early to tell. my menstrual is on the 29 well at least it started that day last month. I have been having diarrhea only in the mornings off and on for the past week. sweaty palms, stomach pain and i just don t know if it really be because i am pregnant. i also did some research about signs on conceiving and the main reason i went to the doctor was due to light spotting and he said that he isn t worried about it and left it at that and it was about a week after having sex. i thought something was wrong.

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. If you had the intercourse just a week before your expected period, conception is not possible in usual circumstances. This is because ovulation occurs two weeks prior to the onset of the next period. Diarrhea and other symptoms can be due to the prostaglandin release with an impending period or due to an infection. This can be clarified by a physician. The spotting should be watched for repeated occurrence or it may be due to an impending period. If you still think you could be pregnant, please go for the blood test. Hope this helps.
