What Are The Early Signs And Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

i think i may be pregnant. For the past two and a half weeks i have been nausea and vomitting and off my food. I cant stomach food til 3 pm and then its not much. I have been suffering from headaches and heartburn which i never have before. My breasts have gotton fuller and heavy and my stomach is noticably fuller and feels heavy and firmer. I have put on weight about three kilos in the past months. I walk for an hour a day. My nose will run for no apparent reason and i dont suffer from allergies or have a cold at present. The last time i had sex was feb 13 and it was several times and unprotected. What i thought was my period arrived feb 22 it lasted three days and was very light mainly spotting. On march 6 i spotted for most of the day. Actually my last two periods have been very light and lasted three days where normally they last five days and are of a moderate status. I have been with my partner for five months and we always have had unprotected sex. Do you think i can be pregnant? I took a home pregnancy test march 12 it was negative.

Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Scanty flow during menstruation, weight gain, nausea are suggestive of pregnancy. However, these can also be due to the hormonal disturbances like hypothyroidism, hyperprolactemia or polycystic ovarian disease.
I would suggest you to get a urine pregnancy test done to confirm the pregnancy, and if negative, then you should get your hormonal profile and ultrasound done to confirm the diagnosis and get appropriate treatment.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
