Questionhello,
i am 22 i have 0 children and my last cycle was @ the beginning
of Jan.
i am concerned b/c i was sick last week i believe i
have IBS, but i belive the cramping and tenderness started 1-2 weeks
before then when i felt it in my lower abdomen.
I noticed it last night more sowhen i was laying in my bed when i still
kept getting
small cramp like symptoms going across my tummy in my lower
tummy. i ran my finger just lightly over it and it was slightly
tender... a few weeks ago i took an EPT and it was negitive,
could i be pregnate or it be in my tubes and showed a neg. test?
do i need to reschedule an apt. w/ my dr. i went and they tested
me also w/ a urine test and it was also neg. please help.

AnswerYour symtoms sound more like IBS than pregnancy, since you have not missed a period. If you have any doubts, the best time to take a pregnancy test is seven days after you miss your next period. If you started your period at the beginning of January, see if you get your next period on time. If not, wait seven days and then take a pregnancy test. The earliest symptoms of pregnancy are breast tenderness, fatigue, and nausea. Tender abdomen or crams are not a signs of pregnancy. If you were pregnant (even if your tubes) the pregnancy test would be positive.
