Does Headache, Fever And Tiredness After Having Unprotected Sex Indicate Pregnancy?

I ve had unprotected sex with my boyfriend a few times, and now I have a headache, mild fever cramps and I m very tired and I ve had my period. We had unprotected sex 3 days before my period and then a day before and we ve had sex after. Could I be pregnant? I would like to know before I buy a test.

Hello,
I have gone through your query and here is the explanation: 1. In a regular menstrual cycle, ovulation occurs two weeks prior to the onset of the next period. Any intercourse around the ovulatory or fertile period carries the risk of conception and hence is considered unsafe. 2. The period just before and just after a menstrual period is safe. Since you had the intercourse during this period, you are safe. Stress, weight disturbances, infections and certain medications can alter the menstrual cycle. You can go for a HPT if you do not see your period even after three days after it is expected. If you had a natural period, this is unnecessary. Hope this helps.
