What Are The Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

Can I be pregnant? I am pretty sure I may have ovulated late in my ccle as I had really tender breast for 3 days. I had sex a day later and 5 days later had some bleeding. It lasted less than 72 hrs, was mostly brown and bright red and stopped suddenly. I have been experiencing a bit of nausea, sore breasts, frequent urination but not very much, fluttering feelings in my uterus area with lower back pain, my nipples keep changing colour from pink to brown and back, had headaches and excess saliva

hi.
thank you for posting query at HCM.

further history would have been helpful like:

1. last menstrual period?
2. is menstrual period regular in the last three months ( number of days of the cycle)
3. vaginal spotting? ( vaginal spotting may look similar to menses but it NOT regular periods)

if the present bleeding was NOT heavy and "painless"; if its more like spotting / brown color patch; then it maybe "implantation bleeding".....you maybe pregnant and need to meet your treating physician/gynaecologist at earliest.

test than can help you clear your doubts:
1. blood test for beta HCG
OR
2. urine test for beta HCG
OR
3. gynaecological ultrasound

any ONE of the three mentioned test would give you the result, be it positive or negative.

hope to answer your concern.

regards
DR Tayyab Malik
