Patient's question:
Last week, my husband and I had sex without taking any precautions. Today, when I went to bed, I noticed that my breasts were swollen and sore. I suspect that I might be pregnant, so I wanted to ask the doctor if breast tenderness and swelling after one week of intercourse could be a sign of pregnancy.Doctor's answer:
After staying in the same room for a week, the issue of breast tenderness reappeared. Due to the short duration of consideration, it is not yet possible to confirm how pregnancy might occur. It is suspected that it could be related to issues of qi and blood deficiency, possibly linked to nervous system regulation. It is necessary to seek medical guidance to conduct targeted and thorough examinations to confirm the specific problem. A few days later, further tests should be performed to determine how pregnancy might occur. A targeted ultrasound examination can be done, and it is important to rest well.
