Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone could help me, me and my partner had unprotected sex on the day of ovulation and I’m 5 days till my period is due... I’m experiencing a stitch that is in my lower abdomen and mild cramps. I’ve also been on and off totally exhausted!! I’ll be okay for a while then feel totally exhausted. I’ve had really bad mood swings and gassy! (Sorry tmi) and also craving salty foods on and off! Could I be pregnant? Thanks xx

If you had unprotected sex when you ovulated you could be. Take a test. FRERs are accurate up to 6 days before a missed period.

Take a FRER and see. Its still quite early though, you might have to wait a few days to see a positive result if you are

Take another test when your period is due or late.
