Patient's question:
Hello! I had intercourse about twenty days after my menstrual period, and now it has been thirty days. Recently, I've been feeling dizzy, having a poor appetite, and occasionally experiencing mild lower abdominal pain. In the morning, I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative. Could this be a sign of early pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, whether it is pregnancy cannot be determined solely based on these clinical manifestations. You can wait for a few days first. If your period comes normally, it means you are not pregnant. If your period is delayed by more than 7 days, you should get a test to check if you are pregnant. It is recommended to have a blood test to check hCG levels, as it is more accurate than a pregnancy test strip.
