Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Having Stomach Bloating,nausea And Heaviness In The Breast?

Last month I had my thyroid checked and it is low. My husband and I were prescribed provera because we are trying to get pregnant at this same doctors visit. I ovulated on the 26-27 of April, had some spotting when I wiped on the 1-2 of May. I am currently breastfeeding my one year old but have had some of the common early pregnancy symptoms. I missed my period three days ago, my breasts feel heavy, I m always tired, a lot of bloating, and some nausea and aversion to smells. However all of the pregnancy tests are negative. Is it possible my low thyroid is making the test show negative? And if so when can I expect for it to show positive if I am pregnant?

Hi,

Thyroid deficiency causes irregular or absence of periods. Depo provera being a progesterone drug has side effects of delayed or absent periods. It also can cause nausea, vomiting & abdominal bloating too. But if you are very sure about ovulation, it's better to check for pregnancy first by pregnancy test. In case it's excluded, move to management of the hypothyroidism. It will improve your menses cycle to help you out of your problem.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
