I've been experiencing nausea, cramps, fatigue, and headaches six days after having intercourse and taking the i-pill. I'm really worried and wondering if these are side effects of the i-pill or if they could be early signs of pregnancy. Could you help me understand what's going on?

The symptoms you're experiencingnausea, cramps, fatigue, and headacheare likely side effects of the i-pill, as it contains a high dose of hormones that can cause such reactions. However, to rule out pregnancy, consider taking a urine pregnancy test if your period is delayed. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.

Question

I'm just over 7 weeks pregnant and noticed a little brown discharge on my panty liner today. I had an ultrasound last week and everything seemed fine, with a heartbeat of 140. It's my first pregnancy, and I don't have any medical history. Is this discharge normal, or should I be worried?
