Dr. Alvin Lin answered

Go see ur FamilyDoc: Go see your Family Doc or OB who can order tests that will either confirm your pregnancy or miscarriage. They can also make sure you're otherwise healthy enough for pregnancy or help you get that way. Or they can offer you best birth control for you if you don't want to get pregnant.
