Hi doctor,
I was diagnosed with gastroenteritis last year. I have an active sex life and use ECP (emergency contraception pills). Recently, my partner and I tried to use a condom when my calendar indicated that I had a medium chance of getting pregnant. We used a condom, and I took an emergency contraception pill using the Yuzpe method. However, my stomach hurts every now and then, and I took a pregnancy test, which came out negative. Just now, I took an antacid tablet because of my stomach pain, and I vomited, burped, and passed gas. Could these symptoms be a sign of pregnancy, or am I just too acidic?
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I am happy to provide expert opinions to you and your family's healthcare needs. I understand your concern.
No, this is not a sign of pregnancy. This pain and acidity can be due to gastroenteritis only. So, do not worry about pregnancy. You used both methods of contraception, did a pregnancy test, and there is no chance of pregnancy. Just continue taking antacids. Along with that, I suggest taking the tablet Drotaverine 80 mg once after a meal when the stomach hurts. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with them, and take the medicines with their consent. When was your last period? Did you vomit? If yes, how many times? Please let me know.
I am looking forward to help you further with your medical needs.
Thank you.
