How long after pregnancy will there be early pregnancy symptoms? What should I do if I don't want it?

Patient's question:

Last month, I didn't use contraception a few times. I don't know if I'm pregnant. What symptoms can indicate it? What should I do now if I don't want it?

Doctor's answer:

For the question of when you will have reactions after pregnancy, you must pay attention. Regarding the question you asked about when you will have reactions after pregnancy, I will answer it for you:
Menstruation stops: If your menstrual cycle has always been regular, but if it doesn’t arrive on time and exceeds 10 days, you should consider the possibility of pregnancy. This is the earliest sign of pregnancy, and the longer the delay, the higher the likelihood of pregnancy.
Early pregnancy symptoms: After menstruation stops, the pregnant woman will gradually feel some abnormal phenomena, known as early pregnancy symptoms. The earliest symptom is a sense of coldness, followed by gradually feeling fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness, loss of appetite, picky eating, aversion to greasy smells, morning nausea, and even vomiting. At times, there may also be dizziness, physical fatigue, and lethargy.
Frequent urination: Due to the uterus gradually enlarging after pregnancy, it compresses the bladder, causing an increase in urination frequency. However, there are no symptoms of urgency or pain in the urinary tract that would occur with a urinary tract infection.
Breast changes: Breast development, nipple enlargement, darkening of the nipple and areola, small lumps around the nipple, or even breast pain and tenderness may occur. Occasionally, a small amount of milk may even be squeezed out.
Hyperpigmentation: Some women may experience brownish or dark-brown pigmentation on their abdomen and the midline after pregnancy.
Elevated basal body temperature: When some of the above symptoms appear, you can measure your basal body temperature daily. Pregnant individuals often have an elevated basal body temperature.
