Hello, and I hope I can help you today.

If you are having unprotected intercourse, then you have a risk of pregnancy.

However, pregnancy symptoms vary widely in women, and the majority of women have no symptoms at all other than a missed period. And your period can even be delayed from the stress of worrying about pregnancy.

However, frequent urination and back pain can also be symptoms of a UTI, or bladder infection.

So I suggest you see a medical doctor to evaluate your symptoms. They can check your urine for the presence of infection and also for pregnancy, and recommend the correct course of treatment. If you have a UTI and are pregnant, it is dangerous to leave it untreated as the infection can spread to your kidneys and make you very sick, even requiring hospitalization.

I hope this answer was helpful and I hope you follow my advice and seek proper medical evaluation for your symptoms.

Best wishes, and I hope you feel better, Dr. Brown
