hi there need some advice if you don't mind sharing.
I'm not sure if i'm pregnant or not! (sonuds a bit daft i know!)
I constantly feel like i'm going to throw up, i feel dizzy and light-headed now and again, my breasts are extremely sensitive and sore (especially round the nipples) and i have stomach cramps!
Took a pregnancy test yesterday which was negative and was at GP today (other reasons) and mentioned my symptoms and he said the over the counter tests are pretty accurate but wait a few days and re-test.
Im on the pill and dont get any bleeds (or symptoms of a period) so i'm unsure if maybe its just one of these freaky moments when my body decided to stick two fingers up and confuse me!

Would appreciate any advice!

Do you know your cycle?

Have you had sex?

Did you use contraception?

I think you can get false negatives but not false positives.

When is your period due?

I would wait for a couple of weeks after your missed period and then test.

I dont really have a cycle because im on the pill ive been on it for years and never had any problems with it. As i said i dont get any bleeds or anything so that's why im unsure if its just the pill im on playing up or if im pregnant

Oh right. Have you been the Dr's about having no cycle? I was on the pill for years but still had a v light bleed which was regular as clockwork each month.

I don't know what to suggest really.

Maybe try the Conception topic?

The doctors know i have no cycle they said thats there's a small minority of people who dont get any bleeds or any period symptoms and i fit into that catergory unfortunately.
