Are Lower Back Pain And Light Vaginal Spotting Symptoms Of Pregnancy?
Hello...Just a quick question....I havn't been feeling to good lately and thought that i could possibly be pregnant, i just look a test this morning and it was negative but ive been reading up on symptons and a lot of them i am having....I had my period last week but it wasn't normal what so ever, it was very light and stopped after 2 days and i usually have it for about 4 or 5 days, I am also currently on birth control pills as well. Some of my symptoms are lower back pain and lower stomach pains kind of like cramps, also headaches and some nausea, my sleeping pattern hasn't been right either. Could it be to early to tell?

Hi there, I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.
1 ) First of all do not panic.
2 ) As you have mentioned that you are already taking birth control pills. If you are taking the pills regularly as suggested, then chances of getting pregnant are almost nil.
3 ) Your lighter and short periods can be due to effect of the hormones in the pills.
Also, your other stomach related issues can be due to hormonal pills .
You can seek prescription support from your treating doctor for getting anti emetics and antacids.
4 ) If you still have doubt about pregnancy, you can get blood beta HCG test and USG done
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
