Question

I had un protected s*x and a few days later took a test and it was negative.... but my period is soon i would like to know how to tell the difference between pre menstrual or not im bloated and im kinda slightly tired and my b*****s hurt ive been on plenty of sites and its only a week after the s*x and i just dont know what to think?

Answer 1

At this point, your symptoms could be a result of stress.  You're just going to have to relax until it has been long enough to tell.

Answer 2

A week will be too soon to tell.  A pregnancy test detects a pregnancy hormone in urine and after only one week, your body will not have had enough time to begin making and spreading this hormone throughout your body.  Whether or not you get your period, you should take another test.  It would be even better to go to a doctor who can take a blood sample, which is more accurate.  Your first test could have been a false negative.

Answer 3

It is to early to tell.  After only a few days it is too early to detect the pregnancy hormone hCGin you urine.  I think you are so stressed that you are experiencing pms.

Wait to see if you miss your period or if it is lighter than usual.  If so take another test.  First Response can detect a low level of hCG.

Answer 4

i think you want to be pregnant or you wouldnt be thinking about it. also, how is anybody supposed to know if you are pregnant, you period is not even due.

Answer 5

PMS & early pregnancy sysmptoms are very similar. I am also waiting to do HPT this Sat (AF due 26/27). I am currently experiencing sore bbs, pee often, light thick yellow discharge & slight tummy cramp. I don't feel bloated by I have to unzip my work pants when i sit. I hope it's not PMS
