Is Nausea,fatigue And Headache Sign Of Pregnancy Or Miscarriage?

Last month (on May 26th) I received what I thought was my period after feeling like I was pregnant. I d had cramping at what would be the exact time of implantation, nausea, tired, headaches, etc. Once I got my period it was very painful (which is not usual), with clots everytime I went to the washroom for about four days. I was also bleeding a lot more than usual. We queried an early miscarriage, but were told there was no way to really know . According to my cycle, which is either bang-on 28 days, or waking up soaked the next day, my period should have come yesterday. How can I determine if I did indeed have a miscarriage? Also, is it possible my periods could be messed up since that? I m afraid to test again, because I ve had quite a few negative results.

Hi.

There is one way, you can take a urine pregnancy test or a serum test to check your hCG levels, which would have started rising since implantation would have taken place. These levels slowly drop a while after a miscarriage, but can be detected through a urine pregnancy test or a serum test.

Best wishes.
