Suggest Tests To Confirm Pregnancy
Hi my name is Brandy and this is what I have to say.
I have been with my partner for over a year. I had sex once unprotected right before I met him. Before that I got checked (pap) and the answers were negative. Over a month ago I got really sick and I took medication a lot. My boyfriend got sick too. Now we are okay but I am the only one with a swollen lymp node behind my right ear. For the past year off and on I have had mild diharrea but most when I was really sick. I have been on the depo for the last three months and I still haven't gotten any signs of my period. My boyfriend has noticed some discharge from his penis and we are both concerned. I know I was being stupid and now we needs some answers. We are planning on going to my family doctor asap.

It is important to confirm pregnancy.However,amenorrhea may be due to many other reasons.
Pregnancy can be confirmed at home by urine pregnancy test(UPT).Two dark vertical line on the card confirms pregnancy.
However,Ultrasound of pelvis is the investigation of choice to confirm pregnancy.
USG can detect G-sac earliest.
Get well soon.
