Are Visible Veins In Chest Sign Of Pregnancy?
Okay so pretty much my last period was June 5th and I inserted a nuvaring on June 23rd. A couple hours after it was in, I went to my boyfriend's house and we had sex and he -cough- "finished" inside me for the first time. So then a couple days ago I realised that my boobs were feeling weird and are sore and veiny. You know how easily you can see the veins on your wrists? Well it's like that on my chest and to my shoulders which is really not like them. I posted the question about my chest and someone mentioned pregnancy. Is that really the case? Could I be pregnant? If I'm overreacting please tell me, I'd rather hear that than "yes, you could be pregnant." My nuvaring isn't due to come out for another two weeks. What do you guys think?

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the visible veins on chest might not suggest pregnancy.But any hormonal contraception needs additional protection with condom within first week of usage.We cannot definitely say there is risk of pregnancy.The first sign of pregnancy is missed period.Other signs are nausea,,vomitings,increased urination,sore breasts which start 2 weeks after missed period.When there is missed period I suggest you to go for a urine pregnancy test after a week of missed period for accurate results.As such nothing to worry and visible veins on chest is not a sign of pregnancy.Avoid stress.
