Is There Any Possibility Of Pregnancy As I Am Having Headaches, Dizziness And Light Bleeding?

Hi, I was curious to know what my chances of being pregnant are? My fiancé and I had sex a week ago and I kind of had a gut feeling ever since it happened that I was. I had just gotten off my period a day before. My periods last normally 6-7 days. I have been having headaches, been dizzy, and running to the bathroom more than I normally do. This morning I experienced some light bleeding. Not really sure if I am over reacting or if I could possible be pregnant.

Hi,

It takes at least 10 days after your missed period, for urine test to detect pregnancy and in some women even more than 10 days. Kindly take urine pregnancy test 10 days after your missed period date.

Blood hCG level can also be done since it detects pregnancy earlier than urine pregnancy test. Headaches,dizziness may not always be related to pregnancy.Hence confirm pregnancy with tests.

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

Regards
