Does Sore Breasts, Tiredness, Abdominal Cramps After Protected Sex Indicates Pregnancy?

Hi, I have just had protected sex (condom) with my boyfriend a few days ago and the condom did not break or anything. However it is the third day after having sex and I am a little tired, my breasts are a little sore and i have been having abdominal cramps. I am scared that I am pregnant, what do you think?

Hi,
Since you have had protected intercourse, chances of pregnancy are little. All the more, you cannot have any symptoms so soon even if you had conceived. If you are regular with your periods and have never missed one, please wait for your next period before you test for pregnancy. Also, intercourse during the safe period does not result in pregnancy even if it is unprotected. If you still wish to exclude/confirm pregnancy, you can get the serum beta-hCG titres estimated not earlier than one week prior to your next expected period or two weeks from your intercourse. Hope this helps.
