Hello,

These are not sure signs of pregnancy and indicates non-specific symptoms associated with hormonal changes.

As of now, you can take drugs like mefenamic acid for symptomatic relief.

You can simply go for a urine pregnancy test (UPT) to confirm whether you are pregnant or not.

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