How To Confirm Pregnancy?
Hi,
I am 30 years old, weight 62 kgs n height 5.2''. My menstrual cycle is 28 days and I am very regular.I missed my period and after 3 days I noticed light bleeding. It continued for 3 days with very light flow. I am having lower back pain with muscle cramp in legs (not the usual cramps that I get during period), felt bit of nausea on 1 day, headache for 2-3 days n also had raised temperature for 2 days. I took a pregnancy test post 9 days from the day my period was due, but it came out negative. Is there any possibility that I can still be pregnant?

Hello ma'am and welcome.
There are many women who do not return a positive pregnancy test until 3 months into their pregnancy, so do not worry about this. I would recommend a visit to your doctor who would prefer conducting a serum test, and also confirm or rule out pregnancy on the spot.
Please also request for a hormone check if at all pregnancy is ruled out as a hormonal imbalance can also result in such a presentation.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
