How likely is it that I’m pregnant?

Hi everyone, I’m 20 so it’s my first time posting here but I thought this was the best place to come. Long story short, I had unprotected sex last month (11th July) which was during the peak of my ovulation. I got my period and thought nothing of it, however it was a lot different to usual - lasted three days, slightly lighter (but still a lot heavier than spotting) & a different type of painful with sharp cramping pains in my actual crotch? Anyway I took that as a sign that I wasn’t pregnant, however the past week or so I’ve been feeling very weird.

The main thing is that I’ve felt insanely fatigued, I just feel weak constantly. I’ve been very dizzy and lightheaded, my body aches especially in my joints at night, I haven’t been sick but definitely feeling nauseous from time to time especially surrounding foods and smells, my appetite has definitely increased as I haven’t been eating a lot lately, my boobs also feel quite sore sometimes but not consistently.

Obviously those symptoms seem to point to towards me being pregnant, however I took a test today and it came back negative and also as mentioned I did have my period.

I think I’m best off going to the doctors regardless as if I’m not pregnant there’s definitely something wrong with me haha, but I thought I’d try and get someone else’s opinion as I don’t really have anyone else to talk to at the moment.

You're about 26 days after ovulation, which would show up positive on a test if you were pregnant. Plus, you've had a period. It doesn't sound like you could be pregnant at all.

Maybe get yourself screened for STI's if you've got unusual pain down below and period was different than usual

Thanks for your response thingymaboob, I was wondering if it was a false negative however definitely not hoping for that to be the case haha. I did think I wasn’t pregnant until the weird symptoms this week. I’m sure it wouldn’t be an STI as it was with my long term boyfriend who I’m certain hasn’t been unfaithful Smile

You have posted about this rwice, get a test!

That's good news. I think it's very unlikely pregnancy if you've done a negative pregnancy test at 26 days post ovulation and you've had a period. Have you had the covid jab recently? That can affect period temporarily and give you aches etc
