Patient's question:
Doctor:Hello! I usually get my period around the 1st of each month, but for several times in a row, I’ve had brown discharge about a week after my period, only when wiping. Is this another period?
I haven’t gotten my period by the 17th this month, because my cycle isn’t very regular, and I’ve had delays in the past. But I’m worried I might be pregnant. Do I need to remove the plastic cover before using the pregnancy test? It seems to be ineffective. Why don’t I have any symptoms at all? What’s going on? The test strips haven’t changed at all, but the instructions say there’s one condition...
Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, the symptoms of pregnancy at one week vary from person to person. Most people do not experience obvious physical symptoms, although some may feel pregnant as soon as they conceive. However, this sensitive is not common, and symptoms such as vomiting and nausea usually appear around the first month of pregnancy.
