Are There Chances Of Pregnancy Even After Having Negative Pregnancy Tests?

I had unprotected sex almost six weeks ago and took plan B 12 hours afterward. My period was scheduled to come that day but came exactly one week later, lasted about five days and was normal (not merely spotting). For the past two days I have experience breast tenderness and nausea but two home pregnancy tests yielded negative results. Could I still be pregnant?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.

I understand that you used plan B after 12 hours and had a normal period after that.

The chances of pregnancy after this are zero. So please do not worry. The breast tenderness and nausea may be due to premenstrual syndrome [a group of symptoms that occur in some women], stress, indigestion, hormonal disturbances.

I suggest that you take a healthy diet like well cooked vegetables, cereals and soups. A morning and evening walk, or a workout will help.

If the symptoms still persist then you will need an examination by a doctor. I think you will be fine with the above simple measures.

Hope this satisfies your query.
