Brief Answer: SYMPTOMS UNRELIABLE - WAIT FOR BLOOD HCG TEST Detailed Answer: Hello Thanks for writing to us with your health concern. As you have undergone ICSI, I can understand your apprehension and anxiety. However do not stress out. All the symptoms that you describe are not specific for pregnancy. They can be indicative of early pregnancy as well as they can signify an impending period. Hence it is best not to rely on them to diagnose a pregnancy. Am sure you would have been called for a blood HCG test. Please wait until then , and only then can a comment on pregnancy be made. Meanwhile, take rest, and follow the medication prescription and precautions advised to you. ALl the best. Please feel free to ask for further clarifications.
