Hello,
Cramping (abdominal pain mostly on left/right sided pain) is usually due to the movement of your tubes after the procedure. It's normal . constipation and bloating is due t the procedure. Taking high fibre in your diet like oats, fruits , vegetables can relieve your symptoms. Do not strain while defeacating. If you suffer from severe constipation , take advice from your doctor on which on the counter enema you could take. Urine pregnancy test does not show results before 2-3 weeks. wait for a week or 10 days before you take another UPT.
