Is Bleeding, Sickness, Dizziness, Headaches And Tender Breasts Due To A Pregnancy?

I have been trying to get pregnant, my last period was due 18th Jan but I started bleeding on 20th, the bleeding was red however it only lasted just over 24 hours, I had no pmt symptons before hand and I have felt constantly sick since and dizzy, keep having headaches and my breasts are tender. Can I still be pregnant even though I had a bleed and if so should i worry about the bleeding? Thank you

Hi there, I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

1 ) First of all do not panic.
2 ) As you have unusual bleeding pattern in the cycle and you are also planning to get pregnant, you need to confirm pregnancy. In case of positive pregnancy test, your symptoms can be related to pregnancy.
3 ) To clear the dilemma about pregnancy, I will suggest you to get morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy. In case of doubt blood beta HCG test and USG will be of help.
4 ) If your pregnancy test is positive, then please contact your treating gynecologist. Please seek prescription support for oral micronized progesterone tablets, anti emetics like Doxylamine and Pyridoxine combination.
USG will be of help to know about the gestational age and viability of pregnancy.
5 ) If pregnancy test is negative, then you need not worry. But start on Folic acid, Vitamin B 12 and Omega 3 supplements on daily basis at least 3 months before you plan to get pregnant. This helps to prevent many problems during pregnancy and delivery.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
