I have had some early pregnancy signs but not many and not often other than daily headaches and hot flashes. I did not know I was late until 7.5 weeks. I had a 3lb weight gain overnight and felt I had larger breasts, but no tenderness. I almost threw up at the smell of mint tea and the site of blood the other day. I have never missed 2 periods. Is this pregnancy or instant menopause?

Well I think you should take another test this weekend. If you are pregnant it should show up. If you get a negative I would call the doctor monday and see them. They’re the only people who will know for sure.
Go to the doctor and have them give you a blood test.
Depends on your age. Get yourself to the dr. It could be something else is wrong! Call the dr ASAP.
I don’t know what that is but if I were you I would go to the doctor Monday morning if not sooner. None of that sounds like anything to mess with. Maybe an ectopic pregnancy? Those don’t usually have positive pregnancy test results and cause quite a bit of pain. But I wouldn’t wait to long to see a doctor!
if ur around late 30s onward it could be early menopause, but get another test, and if it comes out negative go to the doctor
you could bepregnant
You need to get to a doctor and see what going on. It can be multiple different things going on.
I started my last period on the 29th Jan and im still waiting now……thats nine weeks ago this coming monday on the 2nd April. i took a home pregnancy test at the start of the week and it was negative so im pretty sure im not but ive NEVER been this late. Ive had stomach cramps and a weight gain. My friends have told me to go to the doctors because that pregnancy test couldnt of been wrong so it must be something else. I’ll let you no if i ever build up the courage to go to the doctors! because it sounds like we’re in the same boat!! Let me no if you find out what it is!!
A 3lb weight gain overnight comes from retaining water. . . which could be any number of things, from having eaten a super salty meal, or a problem with your kidneys.
I know you’re scared, but the only way you are going to get piece of mind is by going to the doctor. It could be pregnancy, it could be menopause (although HIGHLY unlikely), it could be any number of things. It could be anxiety, or something with your gallbladder, or a medication you’re on, or stress, or weight gain. . . go to the doctor.
Headache is a pain in the head, scalp or neck.
Headaches can be caused by minor problems
like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more serious reasons
like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can
have harmful side effects, so it is better to
modify your lifestyle. More information available at
