Had Unprotected Sex. Vaginal Tightening, Nausea, Cramps, Fatigue, Itching And Clear Discharge. Why Am I Having Pregnancy Symptoms?

I am 21 years old and a college athlete. I have a fairly regular 27-28 day cycle. Last period began on 10/1 and ended on 10/5. I had unprotected sex on 10/6. My partner pulled out. Found out I had chlamydia and BV on 10/16, at witch time I was treated for both. Symptoms of both infections have since subsided. Soon after, so around 10/22-23ish, I began to have clear/creamy discharge. It is very unlike the BV/Chlamydia symptoms in the sense that there is no itchiness or fish like odor present. I also began to experience nausea, cramping, and fatigue. If I am ever late it is only a day or two. My period was due on 10/28, it did not come. On 10/31 I felt some vaginal tightening as if my period was going to begin, but when I checked there was only discharge. I am now 7/8 days late for my period and am still experiencing pregnancy like symptoms. I took a urine pregnancy test and received a negative outcome. My concern is that I still feel like I may be pregnant. Could I have just received a false negative because my HCG levels are not high enough? Or am I just feeling pregnant because I am over-stressing?!

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.

If you had sex immediately after your periods there is no chance pregnancy occurring. I am suspecting excess stress as the cause for delayed menses. You have got a negative pregnancy test because you are not pregnant. Hormonal changes sometimes cause symptoms similar to pregnancy and there is water retention in the body just before menses which might be making you feel heavy.
I suggest you wait for your periods and quit worrying.
Thanks.
