Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Negative Pregnancy Test Results?
Could I be pregnant? I had unprotected sex that led to my boyfriend ejaculating in me. My period was 10 days late when I started spotting lightly. It got heavier after 3 days and now it s not as heavy as a period but ... it s there. I ve taken 4 HPTs from dollar tree that have been negative. I have also had sore breasts for more than a week and half (which normally goes away when I have my period), I ve been fatigued, I ve been cramping, and other pregnancy symptoms. Please help
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As you had menstrual flow after unprotected intercourse, the possibility of pregnancy is less. Premenstrual breast pain can be seen usually as you said, sometimes it may extend after periods also. But as you are having persistent sore breasts, fatigue etc, if you want to be sure, please go for blood test for pregnancy or ultrasound ultrasound which can give more accurate results. If beta HCG levels are more than 25 mIU/ml, it indicates pregnancy. In ultrasound gestational sac can be seen after 6 completed weeks. So, please contact your doctor and plan for investigations. I will be happy to answer if you have any further questions.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
