Around 21st XXXXXXX i had a brownish spotting very light which lasted for less than an hour. I have been having all PMS Symptoms since the past week- with cramping, back pain etc. however i have not got my periods yet. Is this pregnancy?

Brief Answer:
Pregnancy needs to be ruled out.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The absence of periods with a mild spotting near the time of periods can be an implantation bleeding. The chances of pregnancy are there due to precum even if your boyfriend did not ejaculate inside.
it's best to do a urine test and see if the test is negative. if the test is negative then pregnancy is ruled out and you can wait for your periods to begin. The periods can get delayed due to stress and anxiety also.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
