A member asked:
I was in the shower and noticed brown flakey scabs on my nipples, could this be a sign of early pregnancy?

Maybe not: A urine pregnancy test, done correctly, gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. If done sooner, a positive result is likely real, but a negative result may be due to testing too soon, and thus lead to a repeat test. If a woman gets her normal regular period, then she is not pregnant, and a test is not needed.

No: Although pregnancy can be linked to skin rash and sometimes bizarre looking ones, skin rash is not usually observed during early pregnancy.
