Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You are worried whether symptoms like lower abdomen pain etcetera are due to pregnancy. As your periods are 10 days away, you might be in ovulation stage.

Before ovulation, some women tend to have these symptoms if there is pain in abdomen, back pain, bloating, etcetera. Regarding pregnancy, in my opinion, if you miss your periods from regular date then only you can become suspicious about it.

As you have not missed period, you will not get positive results and also urine kits can show positive test after around 6 weeks. For further examination and consultatiln, do visit your gynecologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Akshay
