Hello, and I hope I can help you today.

Pregnancy symptoms can vary widely between women and feeling bloated, having mood changes, breast tenderness, urinary frequency, headaches, or nausea can be associated with menstrual or hormonal irregularities as well as pregnancy.

So in your case, I recommend that you purchase and perform an over-the-counter urine pregnancy test with your first morning urine sample. If the test is negative, and I do not believe that you are pregnant.

Many women experience bleeding for a few weeks after termination of pregnancy. This is normal and is not to be confused with a normal menstrual cycle, which usually occurs after 4 to 6 weeks after the termination.

I hope that I was adequately able to answer your question today, and that my advice was helpful.

Best wishes,

Dr. Brown
