Question 1

5 days after having sex my breasts hurt, i have been having cravings and my stomach feels uncomfortable could it possibly be early pregnancy symptoms?

Accepted Answer

Doubtful: I am not saying you are or aren't pregnant, but 5 days after conception is way too early for reliable symptoms. If you conceived earlier, then it's possible. A home test always helps sort this out.

Question 2

early pregnancy sharp breast pain?

Accepted Answer

Not normal: Could be many different things , call your OB now u need an evaluation and will prob need breast studies if the pain is coming from your breast and not somewhere else like below your breast.

Question 3

is it normal for your breast pain to be in different areas of your breast, and not just one in early pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Guess what? ALL of the breast is responding to the increased hormones of pregnancy, not just one spot.

Question 4

have pid.  sharp rectum pain and tightening in vagina along with breast pain.  r these symptoms of early pregnancy. how many weeks pregnant do these o?

Accepted Answer

PID: Stands for pelvic inflammatory disease and makes everything down there hurt. It can also mess up your hormones which might account for breast tenderness . If you have missed a period and are going nuts and your doctors have not already checked, take a pregnancy test.

Question 5

my period is a week early and was heavy to begin with, however what concerns me is that is has lasted longer than my other periods and my breasts hurt, is this an early stage of pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Probably not, but...: It can be hard to tell if a woman is pregnant because some of the symptoms seen in early pregnancy can also happen in non-pregnant women. A urine pregnancy test gives a reliable result if done correctly. One can test about 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. Urine tests are very accurate.

Question 6

can ovulation symptoms like breast pain,mild cramps,bloating and fatigue last until periods begin?should i be worried these as early pregnancy symptoms though they has been occurring around since ovulation?

Accepted Answer

: Conception occurs within day or so of the sex. It takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG for a positive pregnancy test. Blood test may be done a day after a missed period. Home pregnancy tests should be done 4-5 days after the missed period. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully.

Question 7

can early pregnancy cause pressure in rectum. tightening in vagina. along with breast pain and lower abdominal pain. have had pid before.

Accepted Answer

Yes: Early pregnancy can cause all those symptoms you describe.  If you don't have foul discharge or fever, then hopefully not pid.  If you're worried it wouldn't hurt to get checked to make sure as you wouldn't want to have cervical or uterine infection in pregnancy.  But definitely the symptoms you describe can be due solely to early pregnancy.

Question 8

how far along in a pregnancy does a woman have to be before her breasts hurt?

Accepted Answer

After positive test: Some women have breast soreness quite early in pregnancy.  However, breast soreness from pregnancy won't occur until after a positive pregnancy test, usually after a missed period.

Question 9

breasts hurt when i press down on them. doesn't hurt when i don't touch them or walk. would this be a pregnancy symptom?

Accepted Answer

A pressing issue: Breasts will naturally hurt when the tissue is compressed. Soreness of the breast can be suggestive of pregnancy if a period was missed, but the best determinate of pregnancy is a positive pregnancy test.

Question 10

randomly breasts hurt, and bumps on areola. i am on continuous pill but near the last week, or is this common with pregnancy? could it be from pill?

Accepted Answer

The bumps on the: Areola are likely montgomery glands. They can enlarge with pregnancy.  Breast pain could be the result of pregnancy, oral contraceptives, pms or your period.  If you miss a period - then take a home pregnancy test. Take care.
