Are Mild Cramps, Nausea, Fatigue And Frequent Urination Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

I am 4 days late on my period and have no signs that it is coming. I have a pretty regular schedule, so it s weird that it is late... I have been having slight mild cramps, nausea, fatigue, backaches and headaches, increase in appetitie, frequent urination, and thick white vaginal discharge. Could I be pregnant?

Hello, and I hope I can help you today.

If you are having unprotected intercourse, then you have a risk of pregnancy.

However, pregnancy symptoms vary widely in women, and the majority of women have no symptoms at all other than a missed period. And your period can even be delayed from the stress of worrying about pregnancy.

All of your symptoms can be caused by other reasons, including vaginal and urine infections and premenstrual syndrome.

So the only reliable way to know is to perform a commercially available urine pregnancy test and follow the directions. Your first urine of the morning has the highest hormone concentration and is most reliable for testing.

I hope this answer was helpful and best of luck with your situation.

Sincerely, Dr. Brown
