Could Stomach Ache And Tiredness Be Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

Hello, I am a female, 5'6, 128, not allergic to any medications, no bad medical history. I had unprotected sex on the 7th of this month while on the first week of my birth control pill, my period is supposed to start on the 13th this week. I am feeling tired, and my stomach hurts, could these be signs of my period or something else?

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion extra precaution needs to be taken in the 1 st week of birth control pill usage.But anyways the symptoms of pregnancy like nausea,vomiting,tiredness, increased urination start usually at 6 weeeks ie., 2 weeks after missed period.So it might be too early to feel any pregnancy symptoms.I suggest you to do a urine pregnancy test if there is missed period.The test give accurate results if done after a week of missed period.
