General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear
I understand your concern
Most important symptoms of pregnancy is the missed period.
And other variable symptoms are: fatigue/tiredness, breast engorgement, increased appetite, darkening and enalrgement of the areola, nausea.
But all these symptoms are suggestive of pregnancy, if you have intercourse in the fertile pahse of the cycle and positive hoem pregnnacy test and blood HCG.
So I advise you to go for home pregnancy test and or blood HCG to confirm the pregnancy.
If pregnancy test will be negative then other cause like
hormone imbalance, hyperthyroidism, should be rule out by reporiductuve hormone and thyroid hormone analysis.
Hope this may help you
