Having Pregnancy Symptoms, Negative Home Pregnancy Tests. What Should I Do?
Hi i am writing because i am very confused as to if i'm pregnant or not. My stomach has been growing the past weeks so much that i look 5 months pregnant but i haven't gained any weight. I had nausea for a week two weeks ago but its gone now. I now have back pain every morning, constant headaches, tender breasts, mood swings, tiredness, cravings and my stomach is huge. I have taken two home pregnancy tests and they say negative but i feel pregnant as i have a son and i feel the same now as i did while pregnant on him! My doctor wouldn't do a test as he says home pregnancy tests never lie but I can't figure out whats wrong with me. Please help

HELLO,
thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
Home pregnancy test are 98% sensitive.
Since HPT is negative, less likely you are pregnant.
Your symptoms are due to weight gain.
I recommend you to get your blood tested for thyroid profile.
Hypothyroidism presents with similar complaints.
Hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
