Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I can t tell if I m pregnant or not. My period was 5 days late. I took a pregnancy test on day 4 and it was negative. The next day I got what I thought was my period, but the flow isn t like normal. I also noticed that my breasts are larger in size, I m have much more bloating and abdominal pain than my normal period, and my back hurts significantly more than normal when I m on my period.
Hello dear I understand your concern Your symptoms could be due to pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy , hormonal imbalance. Pregnancy test will give positive result 7 days after delayed period At present you can go for blood HCG test and or blood HCG to confirm the pregnancy Take gas x for gas Tablet meftal spas for pain Take rest, drink plenty of water Hope this may help you Best regards Dr. Sagar
A negative Pregnancy test does not rule out Pregnancy especially in the 1st week after a delayed period. Repeat Urine Pregnancy test after 1 week or you can get an Ultrasound to confirm Pregnancy.
