I got my beta HCG pregnancy test results today, and it says 0.172 mIUmL. Can you tell me if this means I'm pregnant or not? I'm a bit confused about what the numbers mean.

View allI'm really trying to understand what's happening with my body. My period is now 5 days late, and I've taken a home pregnancy test twice, but both times it was negative. I've noticed some white vaginal discharge and it sometimes burns. I'm also feeling really tired all the time, have some lower back pain, and I'm just generally frustrated. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
Given your symptoms, consider taking a blood pregnancy test (beta hCG) for more accurate results, and consult your gynecologist to rule out other conditions, such as yeast infections (causing discharge and burning), polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or other hormonal imbalances, which may be contributing to your fatigue, back pain, and frustration, and also discuss fertility options and potential underlying causes for delayed conception.

I'm thinking about starting Novelon tablets for my polycystic ovaries to help regulate my periods. I'm a bit concerned though, will taking them cause me to gain weight? I do plan on taking them with my doctor's advice, but Id love to know if this has been an issue for others in the past. Can you confirm?
Novelon tablet, containing desogestrel, is a progestin-only pill used to regulate menstrual cycles, including in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but it may not directly address polycystic ovaries; regarding weight gain, Novelon is considered weight-neutral, meaning it's unlikely to cause significant weight gain, but individual responses may vary;
