I ve been experiencing food cravings for two weeks now, along with heat flashes about 10 times a day. I ve taken preg test but they all show negative. I ve been trying to conceive for the past month 1/2. Please help?!

Hi.

It may be a little early to check your pregnancy status, but the pink bleed does signify either a soon approaching period or a hormonal imbalance. So I would recommend 2 things:

1. Serum hCG (blood test) which is more accurate than the urine tests

2. Female hormone panel

The second test can help with a diagnosis and also help you with your run on conception, so it benefits in more than one way.

Best wishes.
