I know that many women experience bloating, mild cramping and slight backache as pre-menstrual physical signs or symptoms. Anyway, my doctor told me that as the uterus grows, these sensations might also be associated with early pregnancy. That is why I want to hear if anyone could tell me for sure answer to my question. Can you have cramping before period, but possibly be pregnant in the same time?

My last normal period was july 19th. I'm usually on a 28 day cycle. August 11th I got my period again with super severe cramps, sometimes they were so bad I couldn't even stand up. So I went to the hospital, they took a pregnancy test, infection test, did internal exams, the whole works, and pumped me up on morphene because the pain was so bad. .... anyways, they couldn't figure out what was wrong. Today is September 8th, and I'm on the 4th day of my period (it's usually 7 days) I got those really bad pains again on sunday, they're not menstrual cramps though, they're waaaaay worse, i don't even remember what my pre-menstrual or menstrual cramps feel like anymore. so i went back to the hospital and they still couldn't figure anything out. I started my period on Tuesday.. early again. With a light, brown blood, flow. Then wednesday and thursday were pretty normal... Today's friday, the 4th day, and there's only light, brown, spotting... which so is not normal for me at all. My aunt has endometriosis, but i'm only 17! My periods are never irregular like they have been these two past times, these cramps are so bad, they interfere with everything because i can't do anything else except lay in bed...which doesn't help anyways, they're on the left lower side of my stomach near my hip, and the lower middle of my stomach too!! owww they hurt so bad!! i've been extra tired lately, my breasts hurt whenever my boyfriend touches them, i don't know what to do... would someone please tell me what's going on!!!


I understand how you feel because I have the same problem maybe even worse. The pain gets so bad sometimes, if I don't take painkillers way before, then I start throwing up, shivering, sweating, and can't stop screaming from the agony! I am 28 now and don't remember having this problem earlier than 16. It all started around your age so it is not necessarily something to worry about. My periods have also been irregular for years. It just happens to some people and some I guess are just luckier than others and suffer less. However, most likely this is happening to you because your body and hormones are changing as you mature. It is also perfectly normal for breasts to be tender and swollen during menstruation. Try not to let it worry you and have regular checkups with a doctor you trust. He can prescribe some medication to help alleviate the pain.



I have had those same problems before I never had the cramps really bad though. I am 21 and I found out that I endometriosis in June of 2006. You can get endometriosis just from having your period. Talk to your OBGYN about it. It is a possible to have it. Good luck!!!

I came off the pill in november 2006 and have been trying for a baby. I'm always regular and exactly on time, also i get the pre-period cramps, headaches and all the other things you get when its that time of the month. Now i am 2 days late, test came back negative and i'm getting slight pre-period pains. Yet i haven't had any other symptoms. When i accidently got pregnant when i was younger the same thing happened and i found out i was 2 months gone.
Does it mean i'm pregnant now??
I'm so confused!! Crying or Very sad

Hi,

How are you all? I have few questions. I am also 9 days late on my periods, That's 37 days. My periods are normal. I checked hpt & It came negative. I have cramps, backache, feeling tired & breast tenderness. Could I be pregnant even I got negative hpt? I took birth control pills just one month supply on July, My last menstrual period was 2 August. So I am wondering that these symtoms are pregnancy signs or Birth control pills side effects(I did not take birth control pills on August). We are sexually active & I am ttc for a year. Can anyone please let me know that could I be pregnant or anything else.

Please, Reply me. Because I read lot of stories about people getting negative hpt result when they are pregnant? Is it possible? If I am pregnant, We will be very happy.

pjsmom41706, I read your message. What do you think? Could I be pregnant? Because you told that you were pregnant & home pregnancy test showed negative result. Really appreciated.


Thanks & Good luck to you.

Meenu.



I think you should have your obgyn do a blood pregnancy test to be sure. I did experience crazy periods when I wen off the pill at first so it could be that but I would take a more conclusive test to be sure.

See a doctor! Asking for help from peers is fine sometimes, but if it's possible you could be pregnant then your health and that of the baby's could be in jeopardy if you don't seek medical help. Get to the gynocologist asap! Rolling Eyes

I just had my son June 18th 07. I started taking the mini pill birth control because I'm breastfeeding around the 2nd or 3rd week of July. I had a normal period which started July 27th and lasted 6 days..my cycles are usually 30 days. Then I a day or two later had some slight spotting which I assumed was from the birth control. I waited for august 27th and had no period...Then august 30th I started getting cramps...I've had cramps since then and they were so painful I had drs consent to take IBUProfen 800's instead of Tylenol. The pain was so bad it would make me nauseas and bring me to tears. They also said they wanted to switch my birth control. I've also had A LOT(more than when I was pregnant)of this yellowish discharge...and yesterday I went to the bathroom to pee and it was like a stringy mucous that came out of me....the only other time I saw something like that is when I lost my mucous plug before my water broke with my son. I only ever had spotting once or twice towards the beginning when I started having cramps...since then..no period. I have heard birth control doesn't work for some people and my fiance and I have been sexually active...could I be pregnant? Can anyone else relate or tell me what could be going on? Thanks...and good luck everyone...Pj's mom I hear where you're coming from! It's WAY too soon! Confused

I started cramping 5 days before my missed period. I felt like I was just having my period it felt exactly the same. I was also have lower back pains. I took a pregnancy test on the day my period was due and it came back positive! Everyone is different, and its normal and fine to have cramping!
