Hi,
In the current scenario, you need to have a home pregnancy test done 3-7 days after your missed period with a fresh early morning sample of urine. Though you have symptoms that could relate to very early pregnancy, substantial evidence is needed for a confirmation since you use double protection. If you wish for an earlier and better confirmation/exclusion of pregnancy, you should go for the assessment of the serum beta-hCG titres. Hope you find this information useful. Take care.
