Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I took Clearblue ovulation digital test a week back which showed LH surge. I had intercourse three days before and three days after the test. Since then I have been feeling really sick, but not vomiting. I am really sensitive to perfumes and I have started to feel faint and lightheaded even though I have just eaten or had a drink. I have been getting cramps around my tummy area (like I would the day before my period starts), my bra feels tight, my boobs do not look big but bra feels tight. I have been getting pain around where I get pubic hair if that makes sense like sharp tugging pains. I have stopped getting the discharge. I am not sure what it could be. Please, could you advise if it is too early for pregnancy as I am due to start my period between 20th-22nd of this month or do you think it is a virus or bug?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
As you had LH surge, so the ovulation would have occurred after 36 hours post-LH surge and practically the intercourse after the test would account for possible conception, but the symptoms of pregnancy are never so early. However, the earliest you may test for pregnancy is after eight days post intercourse with a serum beta hCG test which can give conclusive results. The symptoms are more of premenstrual syndrome if pregnancy has been ruled out.
