What Are The Symptoms Of A Potential Pregnancy?

Hi,2-3 weeks ago my boyfriend and I had some sexual contact but not actual sex, genital to genital and I m not sure if his precum got into my vagina or not. My period doesn t usually have a set date but does start sometime between the 21st-29th,I m super scared that I might be pregnant and I m hoping it s just a scare and all in my mind. I feel like my period is about to arrive, I feel gassy, bloated, cramps, hot flashes and super moody. Is this all in my head or is it highly possible that I am pregnant?im super scared.

well, if you have undergone intercourse 2 weeks back and you suspected his precum to have entered your vagina, then chances of pregnancy exists. you could have taken emergency contraception in form of ipill or unwanted72 within 72 hrs of intercourse, but now that period is duly crossed , it is advisable that you wait for your menses and if they are missed by more than 7 days, do a urine pregnancy test done to rule out pregnancy. incase negative you may wait for your menses to return normally. if positive then you may contemplate medical termination if you dont desire pregnancy.
considering your symptoms of feeling gassy, bloating,cramps and mod swings, this may be a part of premenstrual syndrome and you may menstruate in next few days. so stay calm and wait for your menses to start and act accordingly as advised above.
