Pregnancy dates are calculated from the first day of last menstrual periods. Calculate the present date from your last period's first day, and divide the number of days by 7 to get dates in terms of weeks of pregnancy.
The possibilities of twins or wrong dates will get cleared by USG . There is no role of inflammation once you are pregnant.
I hope this answer helps you. Thanks Dr Purushottam Neurgaonkar
