Brief Answer:
Can be due to hormonal imbalance.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. Hormonal imbalance or loosing or gaining of so much weight can give such symptoms.

Do you had any unprotected sexual intercourse or have taken any hormonal pills?

In case of taking any hormonal pills or emergency contraceptive pill also this occurs. Other abnormalities in uterus like myoma also can give such picture.

If this episodes recur then better to have a gynecologic examination and an ultrasound examination to find out status of uterus.

Let me know if anything not clear.
I am happy to help you.
Thanks.

In case of hypothyroidism also this can occur.

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.

Thank you for your follow up.

In case of hypothyroidism also changes in menstrual cycle can occur. Check your TSH level in blood also. If the bleeding is very minute amount then it can be implanation bleeding also as you had unprotected intercourse. In such case better to go for transvaginal ultrasound examination after consulting a gynecologist to find out the status early.

Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.

With that too. Would that cause mild cramping and the very low pelvic region?

Brief Answer:
Implantation can give cramps also.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome again.

Thank you for your follow up.

Implantation can give such cramps. This usually occurs 8 to 10 days after the ovulation date. So it can be a sign of pregnancy also.

One more question would hormonal imbalance cause frequent urination and breast tenderness?. I've been having tingling in the breast n slight cramping n the pelvic area.

Brief Answer:
Explained below.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome again.

Thank you for your follow up query.

Hormonal imbalance doesn't cause frequent urination. Frequent urination can be a symptom of pregnancy or urinary infection. It also comes in case of diabetes.
Breast tenderness and cramping in pelvic area can be sign of hormonal imbalance.

But all these signs totally give suspicion towards pregnancy. Because all these signs are usually seen in early phase of pregnancy.

Let me know if any thing not clear.
Thanks.
