Testing: If you think you might be pregnant check then check a home pregnancy test. They are cheap, reliable and available at any pharmacy. If needed you can schedule BHCG testing. You can do a BHCG level to establish the baseline and then repeat it a few days later. If you are pregnant then BHCG would increase.
