Hi, pregnancy and PMS symtoms are almost similar. You could take a pregnancy test to check.

Your signs could be both of pregnancy or PMS. If you are in doubt take a pregnancy test to check.
my last period was on the 4th of May. I had unproteced sex on the 14th May so i didnt see my periods since then it could be like 2 months late .i took the test and it was positive.so i wanna know if it is possible to have a false positive
If you think it was a false positive, take a test of another brand with a better sensitivity, else you could also visit a doctor and have a test.

Hi Christina, Spotting during periods could be a cause of hormonal imbalance, vaginal bleeding, or internal weakness etc. You should visit a doctor if the condition persists.

Hi. Sometime in May i had unprotected sex. My period is not regular but i keep dates of every month it starts and finishes. He wasnt sure he released, but then i took Andrews. Then evry other times, he withdraws or we just use a condom. But this month, i haven’t seen my period. I know I have been stressed out a lot. Because I keep thinking why is my period late and a lot of relationship ups and downs. I have checked many times with the home pregnancy kit of different types, and there all show negative. Am scared. Am I pregnant? I can’t go to the Hospital because I am been watched. What do I do?
Hi, since you have taken different pregnancy tests and they are all negative there is a rare chance of pregnancy. You could have mmissed your period just because of stress also. To be sure take the pregnancy test 10 days after your missed period date.
