PLEASE HELP
As a physician, I would like to tell you that according to your history and symptoms, you had unprotected sex on 23rd Nov which is pretty close to the ovulation. That increases chances of getting pregnant.
I would also like to tell you that you should take a home urine pregnancy test after 10 days, that is around 15th or 20th of Dec to exactly rule out the pregnancy. But in any case, do not delay the tests and visit a specialist MD Obgy doctor as soon as possible.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Abhijeet
