Are Headaches, Lower Stomach Cramps, Sweet Cravings And Tiredness Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

I have stopped taking my birth control pill now for about 2 wks and have been having sex pretty much everyday for the last wk in a half to 2 wks. I am starting to have mild headaches, lower stomach cramps off and on, cravings of sweets for a couple days now, very thirsty, mildly tired. Is it possible that I could be pregnant already?

Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Stopping the birth control pills and having unprotected intercourse can definitely lead to pregnancy.
Headache, cramps in the lower abdomen and liking of a particular type of food can be symptoms of early pregnancy.
I would suggest you to wait for the periods, if delayed, then do get a urine pregnancy test done, and the if positive, then get further management accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
