What Causes Nausea Along With Dizziness And Abdominal Bloating?

hi, on the 16th of august i had what was meant to be protective sex (condom) however there is a moderate chance that there was pre-cum/semen to vagina contact, 2 days later i received my regular, heavy 5 day period. in the past 2 weeks i ve been waking up feeling nauseous, over-heated, dizzy and become bloated and had heavy food cravings and binges; my normal period is due to start in 4 days and i ve began to feel the general cramps and mood swings but i m wondering if i could still be pregnant due to the symptoms described despite having recieved my period 2 days after the intercourse?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Protective sex with condom reduces the chances of getting pregnant but then you have symptoms suggestive of pregnancy as you feel.
This can be confirmed by the following ways.
Consult your Gynecologist as you need clinical evaluation and ordered investigations like Beta HCG at the moment and to be monitored and/or urine pregnancy tests if you miss the periods.
Ultrasonography of abdomen and pelvis.
If there is pregnancy you can discuss with your Doctor .
If there is no pregnancy then nothing to worry.
This may be pseudocyesis wherein one gets the symptoms of being pregnant but there is no pregnancy in actual.
You Doctors will guide you for this too.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
