Question 1

what are the early signs of pregnancy headaches and spotting?

Accepted Answer

Possible: Typical early signs of pregnancy can include headache, nausea, fatigue and breast tenderness to name a few.  Spotting can also be part of pregnancy but it is not a "typical" sign of a normal pregnancy. However, women can spot with pregnancy.  The only way to know for sure is to take a pregnancy test.

Question 2

if having only cramps seven days after conception, is that an early sign of pregnancy? nothing else. no spotting, tender breasts, etc.

Accepted Answer

No: No, seven days after even an exactly known ovulation is too early to detect pregnancy, implantation doesn't occur until 6-7 days post-ov."Telling early" is this year's blog craze: I'm afraid it's nonsense, although its fun to think about.

Question 3

how many days spotting in early pregnency?

Accepted Answer

It varies: Most of normal pregnancy should not have any bleeding during early pregnancy. However, it is common to have spotting or bleeding during first few weeks of pregnancy. It appears that 10-15% women during their early pregnancy has some bleeding. Some even have heavey bleeding. Be sure to check with doctor. I do see several patients with heavey bleeding still have viable pregnancy.

Question 4

hi..on april 19 i have tested negative pregency and from 25 th april light spotting is observed till now ie 30th april...so when do i test pregnency test again..is this a sign of pregnency or not?

Accepted Answer

: You can test for pregnancy again at any time as long as your period has been missed by at least 3 days.

Question 5

haven't had period an having pregnacy symptons with light spotting. is this a sign of pregnacy?

Accepted Answer

Spotting; pregnant?: The light spotting may be your cycle this month. No woman has completely predictable regular cycles all the time. But, of course the best way to find out is to check a home pregnancy test since some women do have spotting early in their pregnancy. Early pregnancy symptoms can feel a lot like premenstrual symptoms, so just take the test to be sure.

Question 6

saw brown stain spotting 6 days before period is that sign pregnency

Accepted Answer

No: This is old menstrual blood mixed with vaginal and cervical mucous.

Question 7

i've been feeling dizzy lately. having stomach aches and back pains. i also have spottings.

what should i do? are these a signs of pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy worries?: A urine pregnancy test gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), 1 week after missing a period, or 1 week after starting a "weird" period. If done sooner, a positive result is likely real, but a negative result may be due to testing too soon, and thus lead to a repeat test. If a woman gets her normal regular period, then she is not pregnant.

Question 8

spotting after a light 8 day period(that came early) sore breast for a week, tubal ligation almost 5 yrs ago...pregnacy test said neg.whats going on?

Accepted Answer

Irregular periods: Irregular periods are one of the most common problems obgyns treat. If this is one time problem it usually resolves on its own. If this is a recurring problem you should be evaluated. Infections ;  hormonal changes can cause spotting. If there is a concern for pregnancy then do  a home pregnancy test .  There are many options available to help regulate the menstrual cycle. Schedule a visit.

Question 9

okay so i've stopped spotting pink completely and im 9 days late now. what could it be? my two pregnancys i've had all my tests came out negative.

Accepted Answer

Spotting: If you are not on any birth control it may be due to a fluctuation in your body's hormones. Often times this can be due to stress and be of no consequence. It will probably straighten out by itself.

Question 10

very light spotting 3 days after unprotected sex. period not due for 9 days. i have 4 kids, 8 total pregnancies. what could this be?

Accepted Answer

Breakthrough bleed: is a possibility due to hormone fluctuations; however, with unprotected sexual intercourse, I suggest a pregnancy test and if  negative, a GYN exam.
