Brief Answer:
Unlikely to be pregnant!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It is highly unlikely that you are pregnant. If you were, 3months is a long time to have significant changes and symptoms that support this. You really don't have them and you are not pregnant, at least. TO be double sure, do a home pregnancy test and report the results to me for more insights and guidance.

I hope to hear back from you. I wish you well.
