Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Not necessarily.: Although there can sometimes be light cramping with pregnancy - that as a sole symptom is definately not diagnostic. If you have missed your period and have been sexually active - it would be advisable to take a pregnancy test. Take care.
