Hello, my egg ruptured. Since then, I have had a slightly high body temperature, mild pain on the left side of my abdomen, a little headache, and back pain. Could I be pregnant? Can a pregnancy test be done just 3 days after ovulation? Please advise.

Mild pain and temperature rise are common after ovulation. Pregnancy cannot be detected just 3 days after egg rupture. Wait at least 10 to 12 days after ovulation to take a test. Do a Beta hCG blood test after a week for early detection. Track symptoms, and avoid stress.

How early can I confirm if I am pregnant? In other words, when is the best time to take a pregnancy test? Also, are there any specific early pregnancy symptoms I should look out for?

Hi Doctor, I was married on 22nd July, and my period was due on 10th August. I did a home urine pregnancy test, which showed a positive result. Yesterday, we confirmed with a Beta HCG blood test, which showed a value of 4152 mIU/mL. Does this confirm my pregnancy, and how many weeks pregnant am I likely to be? I have attached the Beta HCG test report for your reference.

I am married, and my last menstrual period was on May 9. I usually have a regular cycle of 27 to 28 days. We take proper hygiene measures after intercourse. I have not yet had my period this month. I experienced cramps around my expected date, but my period did not arrive. I took a home pregnancy test on the 34th day, which was negative. It has now been 36 days. Should I wait longer, try period inducing foods, or do heavy workouts? Please advise.
