What Are The Symptoms Of Potential Pregnancy?

Dear Dr Jain, I just check my urine this morning and find that I may be pregnant. The test result in the test region shown a lightly pink colored line which worried me so much.... Am I really pregnant? For me, my story is quite complicated. I had separated with my husband for a year. Yet, we are still keep in close contact and he still cares about me so much. In the middle of last month, it was our 3rd anniversary. We had dinner on that night and ....... we finally had unprotected sex. Actually that was not the first time we had sex again despite we are separated. Over the year of separation, we both feel guilty to have the consequence to be separated. On 4 Feb 2010, we had unsafe sex. On that day, I guess it s likely to be pregnant as my date of my period in January was 24 Jan 2010. So on the date of sex, that was Day 11 .... I worried to be pregnant so I went to see the doctor. The doctor give me two pieces of postinor2. Then, my period was come on 21 Feb 2010. As I said, we had sex again after the 3rd anniversary dinner on 21 March 2010. Since my period was not yet come, and that was already a month ago for my last period on 21 Feb 2010, so we had unsafe sex again. My period was supposed to be on 22 March 2010 as my period was so regular that usually for every 28 days/ cycle. However, it was late for more than 2 weeks and I have the pregnancy test. The result today was ??? positive. My worry is: 1. If I was pregnant, will the effect of postinor2 which I taken about 7 weeks ago before our intersexual course affect the development of my baby? 2. I had sore throat in the recent 2 weeks, I had taken lysosome chloride for sore throat, will it affect my baby? 3. If we don t want that baby and decide for abortion (now I was 35 years old and my hubby was 39 years old), will it affect the future chance of having a baby?? Kindly request for your reply. Frustrated Lady X.

Dear x,
Let me address your concerns one by one.
1. Postinor is an emergency contraceptive which has worked well in your case by preventing pregnancy and you did get your periods that cycle. So drop your concern about that.
2.lysozyme is a natural enzyme of the body and is unlikely to cause any effect on the baby. Relax.
3.Regarding your last question about your future pregnancy, chances are that it might get a bit difficult keeping in mind your age which is regarded as advanced maternal age and also likihood of pregnancy associated medical problems like gestational diabetes etc at that age. So it will be wise to consider pregnancy early from reproductive stand point. You can plan your pregnancy by buying some time if you have a good ovarian reserve( known by some blood tests like amh) or by considering ovum freezing.
4. Another thing I would like suggest is according to your menstrual dates its 6 weeks by which time you should have seen a strong positive line on your card test. So kindly fix an appointment with your physician for early pregnancy evaluation .good luck.
