Having Cramps, Nipples Darker Than Usual, Hunger. Taking Birth Controls. Pregnancy Test Negative. Reason?

I m on birth control (sprintec 28) and have been since roughly 2011 (for regulating the flow and its heaviness, the length and god awful cramping) but I am having symptoms of pregnancy, I ve been having cravings and my nipples are a bit darker than usual, I ve been sleeping horribly the last few weeks, I m getting irritated more than usual, and I ve been eating a lot. I eat a good amount but then I m really hungry again within an hour and a half, and I ve been more stressed out than usual, but I m not sure why. I did 2 home pregnancy tests but both were negative. last month my period lasted 6 days and a was lot lighter than usual, but two months ago my period only lasted 3 days, when my period generally lasts for 7-8 days and is kind of heavy for the first 2-3 days. this month i got my period (a day late) but its brownish red, looks a little watery and is lighter than usual. What is going on with my body?

Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
Your symptoms suggest you could be pregnant.
However these are only suggestive of pregnancy but not confirmatory.
Repeat UPT after 1 week.
If it is positive, get a Transvaginal USG for definitive diagnosis.
Hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
