Test or overthinking?

Question

I'm on pill but recently some changes happened and even my mother asked me if I was pregnant, like cramps in ovaries, I've been having nausea and throwing up, I have certain food cravings... I'm not pmsing for sure because my period ended about week and a half ago (or so). Should I test or I'm just overthinking it?

Answer

If your period ended a week and a half ago you're probably at the time you would usually ovulate or just after, the pill stops this happing so that's probably what the changes are. Also for any pregnancy symptoms to show its usually two weeks after the egg has been fertilised so it's almost impossible that you would have pregnancy symptoms, also you would have to wait two weeks to take a pregnancy test bc it wouldn't detect anything at this stage.

Answer

The problem with pregnancy symptoms is they are similar to a variety of things and can be hard to tell sometimes if it's pregnancy, hormones, pill side effects, etc. You can get pregnancy tests for as cheap as a dollar or even see a doctor and get urine/blood pregnancy testing. If it gives you peace of mind or there is a chance of pregnancy then test but only if there's been sexual activity or a situation that would warrant a possibility of being pregnant.

Answer

Better safe than sorry. Take a test!!
