Symptoms: Was the last period a usual one? Is there chance of pregnancy? In any case, doing a pregnancy test to rule this out never hurts. If negative, wait for another one. Reduce caffeine in your diet. If you happen to miss the next one, do the test again. If you are not pregnant, there is a good chance the symptoms will go away on their own.
