You could be pregnant
It's possible that you could be pregnant, but it's hard to say for sure. Take a home pregnancy test at the time your period would normally be due (about two weeks after you ovulate) for an accurate result.If you take a pregnancy test too early and the result is negative, take another test in a few days. If the test is still negative, but you feel like you're pregnant, find out what else could be causing your symptoms.

Are you using contraception?
Yes
No
No form of contraception is 100 per cent reliable. Depending on the type of contraception you use, you could still have anything from a one per cent to 29 per cent chance of getting pregnant.
Are your periods regular?
Yes
No
Irregular periods don't necessarily mean that you're less fertile than women with regular periods. However, if you have irregular periods, it may be harder to calculate when your period is due. Allow for your longest cycle in recent months before taking a home pregnancy test.
Have you had sex since your last period?
Yes
No
If you haven't had sex since your last period, you can't be pregnant. However, some women experience vaginal bleeding in early pregnancy. So it is possible that you could be pregnant, if your last bleed wasn't a true period.

These are all common symptoms of early pregnancy, some of which can be felt as soon as a week or two after conceiving. However, many of these symptoms can also be caused by natural hormonal changes such as premenstrual syndrome, so having symptoms doesn't necessarily mean you're pregnant.
Similarly, you could still be pregnant even if you don't have any symptoms. Some women don't notice any of these common pregnancy signs, especially in the early weeks.

Is your period late?
Yes
No
I'm not sure. It was shorter and lighter than normal
I don’t know, my cycle is irregular
If you're usually pretty regular, and your period doesn't start on time, take a pregnancy test. A missed period is one of the surest signs of pregnancy. If the test is negative, check out these other reasons your period could be late.
If your periods are usually irregular, or you lose track of when your next one is due, you may not realise if your period is late. If a pregnancy test comes up negative, you could wait for two weeks and try again. If the test is still negative, it's unlikely that you're pregnant.
If your period isn't late yet, it's probably too early for a home pregnancy test to show a positive result. Wait a few days after your expected period, and if your period hasn't started by then, take a pregnancy test.

Have you taken a pregnancy test?
No
Yes, it was negative
Yes, it was positive
If your pregnancy test was negative, you're probably not pregnant (yet). However if you test too soon, before your period is due, the amount of the pregnancy hormone hCG in your urine may not be high enough to detect. Try waiting for a few days and testing again.
