Lower abdominal pain is not normally a sign of pregnancy, neither is having a period (even a short one.) Some women do pass blood early in pregnancy, but it is usually due to complications.

Some early signs of pregnancy are:

Tender or swollen breasts

Nausea

Frequent urination

Fatigue

But the best way to know is first try taking a home pregnancy test, and if you are still unsure see your doctor, he or she will most likely give you a urine test and a blood test. Hope this helped!

I might be 2months pregnant I'm having brown spotting off and on please tell me what's going on?

Hi. If you are pregnant, you need to see your Doctor or go to hospital to make certain you are not pregnant. Brown spotting can occur during early pregnancy and is usually harmless, but it is always best to be certain. If you are not pregnant, the brown spotting may be a urinary tract infection or a yeast infection, from recently stopping/starting birth control pills, recently taking morning after pill or due to your period about to arrive.

Open procedure incisional hernia server pain after meals why?

My 9 year old daughter recently went through a hernia repair and had severe abdominal pain for about 4 to 6 hours after. After calling the surgeon that same evening to see if we could do anything for her, he explained that anastesia usually causes gas and bloating which may be causing her to be in such discomfort. It usually passes by the evening and suggested something like mylicon to help with the gas. We gave her some and the abdominal pains subsided.

Your fiance came inside of you and you were not on birth control at the moment but the next day you took a birth control pill so can you be pregnant?

It depends. If you are regularly on birth control and just forgot it that day, it is not likely but it is very possible. If you are not regularly on birth control and took the pill the day after, then yes, you can be pregnant, since usually you have to be on the pill for 2-4 weeks before a man can ejaculate into a woman without the risk of getting her pregnant.

What are the chances of getting pregnant during your period on the last day?

Depending on the length of your cycle, ovulation day is often between the 14th and 16th day. It is most likely that you will get pregnant around this period since it is then that you are most fertile, but there is a small chance you could get pregnant on day 9 if you did not use a form of birth control, or the birth control failed to work properly.
