Hello, and i hope I can help you today.

It is not possible that you are experiencing symptoms of pregnancy within 5 days of conception (if you are even pregnant). At that stage, the level of pregnancy hormone cannot even be detected on a test.

Many women think they experience pregnancy symptoms when they are worried that they have conceived or strongly desire pregnancy.

Pregnancy symptoms vary widely between women, and many of the same symptoms people associate with pregnancy like spotting, breast tenderness, bloating, nausea and mood changes can also been caused by other hormonal factors. Therefore, there is no way to know if you are pregnant based on symptoms, and the most common sign of pregnancy is missing your period.

So I suggest waiting about 3 weeks and if you still have not gotten your period by then, a pregnancy test should be positive at that time.

I hope this information was helpful and that I was able to adequately answer your question today.

Best wishes,

Dr. Brown
