Possible Pregnancy Symptoms: What to Do When Your Period Is Late


Question
i have not had my cycle for the month of jan. my breast hurt and i also feel nausuated sick to my stomach. can i be preg.? should i wait until my cycle com in feb.? !HELP!  

Answer
Dear Tammy,

If you had unprotected sex during the cycle prior to your January period, then you cannot rule out pregnancy. The symptoms you describe can definitely be related to early pregnancy, but they are hormonal in nature and can be related to variances in your hormonal cycle as well.

My suggestion is to take a pregnancy test (if you have missed the full week of your expected period). Make sure to use 1st morning urine to get a concentrated sample for the most accurate results. If it is negative, then wait and see what your cycle in February brings.

I hope this information has helped you and answered your question. I wish you well.
