Exam needed: There are several reasons for a metallic taste inyour mouth. Dental disease, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, hormonal, medications are only a few of them. A home pregnancy test can answer your concern about being pregnant. A doctor or dental exam and blood tests can help you find out the cause of the metallic taste.

Possibly: There are many reasons for metallic taste in your mouth including, but not limited to, gum disease, hormonal imbalance, medications/vitamins/supplements, GERD, neurologic impairment, infected tonsils/adenoids. You need to see BOTH your Dentist and your Physician for screening and evaluation. Pregnancy test in order after your period, or if you miss a period.
