I'm wondering what the early pregnancy symptoms are, like ten days after having sex but before a missed period. What should I be looking out for?

In early pregnancy, around 10 days after intercourse, some women may experience mild symptoms such as implantation bleeding, light cramping, breast tenderness, and fatigue. These symptoms can vary and are often similar to those seen before a missed period, so a pregnancy test after a missed period is the most reliable way to confirm pregnancy.

I've been experiencing pain on the left side of my breast for about 34 months now, and it's been continuous. About 67 months ago, I also started noticing cyclical mastalgia. Its getting really concerning for me. Could these two be somehow related? Should I be worried about something more serious? How should I approach getting this checked out?
