What Are The Early Signs And Symptoms Of Pregnancy?

Hi, I had sex with my boyfriend 2 weeks ago which was exactly a week after my periods. A week ago during the evening I vomited, ever since then I ve been nauseous and light headed. My breasts were also unusually larger and I had experienced abdominal discomfort ocassionally. I took a laxative this morning and a few hours later I noticed some brown discharge and it went on until now, I m experiencing sharp abdominal cramps as we speak. Could there be a problem?

Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Unprotected intercourse one week after the periods can lead to pregnancy. Moreover, the symptoms like nausea, Lightheadedness and breast engorgement are early changes in pregnancy.
Light brown spotting with abdominal cramps can be due to ectopic pregnancy or threatened abortion. However, laxative intake can be one of the cause for abdominal cramps.
I would suggest you to consult an OBGYN as soon as possible and get properly examined, investigated and treated accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
