What Causes Nausea, Burning Sensation In The Lower Abdomen And Chronic Headache?
I am having a lot of nausea and some burning in the low belly, along with a chronic headache all day. I took a pregnancy test this morning and it was negative, but I am not officially late, and we are trying to conceive. I did not know if all of these could potentially be early pregnancy symptoms or something much worse.
Pregnancy tests detect the HCG hormone, this hormone is normally detectable by day 11 to 14 after conception.
If this time has not passed then it would be best to wait a few days and repeat the test to get an accurate results.Blood tests can give faster result because they can pick up the HCG quicker.
Nausea is a common symptom of early pregnancy. Headache is not a common symptom, though it can also occur as well.
The symptoms of pregnancy can vary from one person to the next.
At this stage you can consider monitoring and repeat the test unless the symptoms are severe. If that is the case, then you should see your doctor.
The symptoms are not likely due to a serious infection if you are not currently pregnant. The most likely causes , other than pregnancy , would be viral infection
I hope this helps
