Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
From your description, it appears that you might not have conceived as shorter duration of periods does not indicate that you could be pregnant. Also, other symptoms what you are describing appears to be due to your apprehension about becoming pregnant.
Early signs of pregnancy include the following:
1. Missed period or Delay in Periods.
2. Tender, swollen breasts or feeling of heaviness in breasts.
3. Nausea with or without vomiting (Morning sickness).
4. Increased frequency of urination.
5. Tiredness or Fatigue.
In case you experience such symptoms, you need to confirm pregnancy by means of:
1. Urine pregnancy test.
2. Trans-vaginal ultrasound scan (TVS).
Kindly consult Gynecologist with the reports for further advise and management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
