Are loss of appetite, nausea and abdominal pain signs of pregnancy?
Patient: Hi I'm 19 years old and my boyfriend and I have had unprotected sex multiple times while I was ovulating . I usually get my period from the 12th to the 17th or so  but this month I had it usual time but then also had some spotting on the 19th to the 23rd . But I'm worried that I am pregnant . I've felt kind of nauseas , and not very hungry . And I've also had a weird crampy feeling in my lower stomach . My boyfriend also says I've been having mood swings too . Doctor: HI,    Thanks for the query.  I understand your concern.  Having unprotected sex many times  during ovulation/ your pregnancy like symptoms suggest  strong chance of conception. This time you had unusual bleeding after menses.this can be due to-   - both bleeding & regular menses & the spotting after wards can be  hormone deficiency with early pregnancy /  Threatend abortion/Irregularity in period out of physical stress or psychological anxiety / fear about conception./ Hormonal imbalance causing menstrual irregularity.   The Home pregnancy test after 8 days of the menstrual date/ USG scan after 3 weeks of ovulation can give exact situation.Consulting a gynecologist for physical examination & immediate treatment in case she suspects pregnancy is advised,/Repeat  menstrual irregularity needs investigations to find out the cause & specific treatment.   Thanks.
