Hi,
Your age and sexual history has not been mentioned.Sexual intercourse before 2 weeks may warrant a pregnancy test. Blood tests can also be done since they are more sensitive. In case of negative pregnancy, you can take antispasmodics such as dicyclomine twice daily after food. Meanwhile a pelvic ultrasound should be taken to rule out uterine or ovarian pathologies.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
