I'm having a number of typical pregnancy symptoms namely, exhaustation, sore breast, light cramping, nausea and dizziness. And I'm 15 days late.

However I'm confused because I had a negative home pregnancy test. any suggestions. Could these symptoms be related to my possible diagnose of IBS?

Brief Answer:
Hormonal variation

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Welcome to healthcare magic.

The symptoms you have mentioned are not related to pregnancy alone.

Such symptoms occur in various other conditions also important one being hormonal variations in delayed periods.

These delayed periods will have some excess progesterone hormones in the body which might have caused these symptoms.

These are not related to IBS.

If you suspect pregnancy get serum beta hCG blood test done to confirm pregnancy. Its accurate than HPT.

Brief Answer:
Corpus luteum

Hi

After ovulation corpus luteum is formed which secrets progesterone hormone.

When progesterone is withdrawn you will get periods. Till then you will have these symptoms on and off.

Good morning. so it seems the above may be my birth control. I'm worried because i woke up about 4 hours ago nauseated, cramping and vomiting. The nausea has subsided but my legs and feet feel achy. I'm going to call my gynecologist when they open

Sorry for another question. But I still haven't gotten a hold of my doctor. The abdominal pain and bloating is getting worse and movement causes more nausea and pain.

how long before I get relief? my last pill was taken at 830 last night.

Brief Answer:
5 days

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Approximately it takes about 5 days from last pill.

If the symptoms are bothering too much you can as well take an antacid tablet available over the counter and see if you get some relief before getting doctor's appointment
