Is Sore Breast,mood Swing And Missed Period Sign Of Pregnancy?

I am 31 years old. The first day of my last period was December 31. I had unprotected sex on January 8, 9, 15th, 16th, 23rd, and 24th. I have had sore breasts, unusual mood swings, little nausea, and fatigue. Prior to the symptoms above, I was having cervical mucus discharge. I also have felt like I had severe cold symptoms for the past week. I have had slight sharp pains (unusual) in my left abdomen. Also a strong cramp every other other that fades away. Nothing like my usual menstural cramps. My period is due today, but has not started. Could I be pregnant?

hello
sore breasts, mood swings, fatigue, abdominal cramps can occur in early pregnancy but they can happen in other conditions also like premenstrual syndrome, stress so pregnancy cannot be diagnosed on the basis of these symptoms alone

ur last period was December 31
since u had multiple acts of unprotected sex &
ur current periods r delayed by 1 day , so pregnancy needs to be ruled out in ur situation

were ur periods always regular? ?

for diagnosing pregnancy u should have urine pregnancy test with first morning urine sample after delay of 5 to 7 days.
if negative & periods still dont come upt can be repeated after 5 days of previous upt .alternatively bhcg can be of help.
if still negative periods can be induced with progesterone under medical supervision

if Upt positive u can still opt for medical abortion upto 9 weeks under medical supervision

I would recommend you to use some form of birth control if pregnancy is not desired

hope this helps you
