Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your query, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
1) First of all do not panic.
2) The main symptom of pregnancy is a missing period.
3)If you have missed your periods, I will suggest to get morning’s first sample of urine tested for pregnancy. If the test is negative , then you can assume that you are not pregnant and your symptoms can be due to PMS- premenstrual syndrome.
In that case-
I will suggest indulging in a healthy diet and regular exercise regime.
Include plenty of fruits, salads, vegetables in the diet.
Have adequate water intake , say 8 – 10 glasses per day.
Avoid deep fried foods, bakery products, and refined sugars.
Avoid substance abuse, if any.
Also, I will suggest use of Vitamin E, B LONG F, PRIMOSA each one daily for 3 months.
4) Most common symptoms of pregnancy are-
1. Missed periods
2. Nausea
3. Vomiting
4. Dry vomits
5. Breast pain
6. Some discharge from nipples
7. Giddiness
8. Loss of appetite
9. Food cravings
10. Frequent urination
11. Increased vaginal discharge
12. Sleepiness
You may get any of these symptoms.
In case of doubts, blood Beta HCG and USG tests will be of help.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you great health.
