Hi, I have been having nausea since 2nd September till today. I have back ache and cramps like period. My last period was from 17th to 20th August with an irregular cycle. The last cycle was 80 days. Could I be pregnant? I had unprotected intercourse from 28th August to 4th September. I took a home test on 7th, 9th and 10th, and it was negative. Please advise. Thanks.

Nausea, cramp and unprotected sex may result in pregnancy. Early home tests may be too soon. Irregular cycles can delay testing. Do Serum Beta hCG blood test now. Repeat in 1 week if periods dont start. See doctor if severe pain/bleeding.

Mam I had unprotected sex on 2nd October. She got her periods on 8th October with normal periods. If I want to be fully 100 percent assured that she is not pregnant what to do and when to do? If I take a beta hcg test then when can I take it for the perfect and final result? Will one time test be fine or is a second time test required if the first time I get a negative result? Please answer and clear my doubt sir and mam.

My blood test report shows an hCG level of 10.4, while my urine test result is negative. What does this indicate, and what should I do next? Am I pregnant?
