Sore Breasts, Metallic Taste In Mouth. Unprotected Sex. Am I Pregnant?

Hi, I had sex this month without protection on the 13th and 19th. Started my last period on the 6th, I believe. Now my breasts are very sore, I've had a terrible metallic taste in my mouth for a week. Smoking is starting to make me ill. I've taken 4 home pregnancy tests, last one this morning. Could I still be pregnant or is it to soon to tell?

Hi,
Thanks for your query.
The chances of pregnancy may be there in your case as you had unprotected sex.
You should consult a gynecologist to rule out whether you are pregnant or not by blood test and ultrasonography because urine test sometimes not sufficient to rule out pregnancy.
All the symptoms may be because of hormonal imbalance also.
Don't worry.
Good luck.

HELLO
YOU HAVE HAD SEX DURING THE UNSAFE PERIOD.URINE PREGNANCY TEST IS LIKELY TO GIVE YOU POSITIVE RESULT AFTER THE DAY OF MISSED PERIOD THAT IS AFTER 6TH FOR YOU.IF YOU HAVE REGULAR 28 DAYS CYCLE, YOU CAN TAKE THE URINE TEST 1 OR 2 DAYS AFTER YOUR MISSED PERIOD.YOUR SYMPTOMS ARE NONSPECIFIC. A SERUM BETA HCG WILL GIVE YOU A MORE SENSITIVE REPORT.
