Have Light Period, Nausea, Headaches And Swollen Breasts. Had Missed Birth Control Pills. Advice?

I missed two birth control pills and was sexually active during that time, I did take them when I noticed. Now I have been having my period, light in color, for nearly two weeks. I am nauseous, my head feels hot all throughout the day but I lack a temperature, emotional, camping, headaches , bloated, food aversions, swollen breasts, and I just realized today that I have a light brown ring around my nipples. What is wrong with my body?

Hello,

All above clinical features are mostly associated with early sign of pregnancy, related with failure of contraceptive pill or irregular using. Light brown ring around nipple is also seen in pregnancy.

Therefore, you should undergo one home pregnancy test with urine initially and blood test for beta HCG to confirm/exclude pregnancy.

In exclusion of pregnancy, other close possibility is PMS. It can be eliminated by life style modification, taking healthy diet with drinking more water, regular physical activity or yoga, avoiding stress/ tension, taking sound sleep and necessary medication.

Be well & take care.
