Could Abdominal Cramping Indicate Sign Of Pregnancy?
I am experiencing cramping and it is still 5 days until my expected period. I normally cramps for 1-2 days before my period but not normally this many days before. could this be a sign that I may be pregnant ? with my first pregnancy I had severe cramping for almost 2 weeks!
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. Abdominal cramps alone might not be sufficient to say that you could be pregnant. Signs associated with pregnancy include nausea, dizziness, vomiting and delay in periods. Experiencing abdominal cramps could be also due to premenstrual symptom. Kindly wait and in case you miss your periods, get your urine tested for pregnancy to confirm. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
