I had sex with my boyfriend and 2 days after I started having some weird symptoms. I felt sick to my stomach, aversion to a certain food. It seems to me that I might be pregnant. Is it too early?

You did not give me enough information to be able to tell you more. It is unlikely that you are having symptoms of pregnancy just 2 days after the sex. However, it is possible that you are pregnant if you had intercourse with your boyfriend before that last time. I am sure that you know this. So, to be able to know if you are pregnant or not, you need to go to your gynecologist. That is the most accurate way to determine the pregnancy. Also, you can buy a home pregnancy test but you need to know that they are usually not sensitive enough to detect an early pregnancy. If you are worried that you might be pregnant, visit your doctor. All of your symptoms that you have listed in your questions are actually symptoms of pregnancy. However, it can also be a sign that you ate something bad and that you stomach is reacting to that food. You can wait and see if you will get your period, but if you are too worried, I advise you to ease yourself and check that out at your doctor

if you are questioning whether or not you are pregnant after having had an intercourse, first take into consideration when your ovulation cycle is. if you dont know when you ovulate you need to be taking precautions if you want to avoid an unwanted pregnancy. if your menstrual cycle is 28 dyas, you likely ovulate about the 14th day. sperm can live in the woman's body for up to 2 days, so you may have sex 2 days before you ovulate and still get pregnant. also the egg is in a position where it can be fertilized for about 2 days. so your fertile period of your cycle (if it is 28 days) is esentially from day 11 (starting the count from the fist day of your last period) to day 17. And, YES! YOU CAN HAVE SYMPTOMS AFTER ONLY BEING PREGNANT FOR TWO DAYS! Immediately after fertilization, hormone levels start to soar. For me, this meant that my breasts were hugely swollen and very very tender and sore on the third day after intercourse! My breasts would normally swell a litlle bit a few days before the start of my period, but this was 11 days before my period would have started, and they were far more swollen and tender! My digestion was also markedly different. Also due to the rise in hormones, you may start experiencing aversions to certain foods, cigarrette smoke and alcohol. Perhaps it is nature's protective way as these harmful substances are especially detrimental in early pregnany and may cause fetal abnormalities or miscarriage.
If you suspect you may be pregnant, take a home pregnancy test. most of them are not accurate until you have missed a period. If you just cant wait to find out you can get a blood analysis to determine pregnancy at your doctor's office or at a Planned Parenthood clinic. It will cost more to get a blood test than a simple urine test (a urine preg test done at your doctors office is no more accurate than one you use at home, given that the test is performed properly), and if you plan to abort, you will still have to wait until there is more development of the embryo before it can be removed anyway. Overall, relax. Review your menstrual cycle as well as your diet and emotional state as all of these things can cause similar types of symptoms. Be well, and good luck!

I had sex with my boyfriend the last day of my period, although I understand ovulation cycles, Im still worried as to whether or not I may be pregnant. Also, I had slight bleeding similar to the start of my period, but its only been two weeks since the last time I menstrated It's uncharacteristic as my period comes every 28 days like clock work. Plus, the blood only occured one day and it was very very light. Is it possible I am pregnant or that I experienced a miscarriage as most occur before a women has even missed her period? Confused

In addition to the irregular occurence of the bleeding I am also experiencing lower back pain and no breast tenderness like I usually have before or during my period. Scared...

Thanks, Its been two weeks since the last day of my period, so the bleeding isn't one week after it was two, is that still possible implantation bleeding? Now it just feels tingly and sort of crampy, which may sound off but I experience severe cramps when I menstrate to the point of vomiting, so these are more just slightly tingly similar to indegestion or constipation cramps. I have a doctor's appointment on Monday but I assume they may tell me what you have already told me. But I made it just in case its something entirely different. Oh well just keeping you posted.
