A member asked:
Are nightmares a possible pregnancy symptom?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anxiety: Nightmares are severe anxiety showing up in dreams. They can be a symptom of post-traumatic stress disorder, which is an anxiety disorder related to having been severely traumatized. If you are wondering whether you're pregnant, a blood or urine test will tell you. But pregnant or not, being worried and suffering from anxiety can bring on nightmares. Talk to your doctor.
