Hi I'm 23 and I had unprotected sex 10 days ago, the last 3 days I have been feeling sick, and bloated, and I have strange feeling in my uterus. Could I be pregnant?

It could be the flu, you could be worry yourself sick.
While a few women claim to have some signs early, for most, the first sign you get will be a missed period.
Can you be ? Of course you had sex, even protected sex has a chance, so with no protection, there is a much greater chance.
You now need to wait to see if you miss your next period or not.

Hello,
It is too early to say if you are pregnant or not.
Gastritis and acid reflux an cause you to feel sick and bloated strange feelings in the lower abdomen could be due to gas in the abdomen. These symptoms are also common in the premenstrual time of the menstrual cycle.
A pregnancy test will come back positive about 14 days after the last unprotected sex , if you are pregnant.
I hope this helps.

Which brand home pregnancy test is this, I am excited to learn of one that will show it up since most will not till at least a week after they miss their next period and are still not 100 percent effective getting false negative still.

First Response Early Result Pregnancy Test, is a most reliable and sensitive test kit. It detected hCG at concentrations as low as 6.5 mIU/ml. That's almost certainly sensitive enough to detect any pregnancy soon after implantation and before the next missed period.
Clear Choice At Home Pregnancy Test, can also detect the same low hCG levels at the reading time specified by the manufacturer.
Please see this link - http://www.babymed.com/pregnancy-testing/pregnancy-tests-consumer-reports-reviews
The fertilized ovum implants in the uterine lining about 7-9 days after fertilization. The ovary starts secreting HCG within 24 hours after implantation.Sensitive tests like the First Response Early Result Pregnancy Test can pick up these low levels of HCG.
These tests are not related to the missed period but to the time of ovulation and fertilization. In women with regular periods, these timings will be accurate but in women with irregular periods, these will not stand. Which is why in women in whom ovulaiton occurs late, the tests come back negative even after a few days of the missed period.

I had only just finished my period the first time we had un protected sex. It happened about 4 or 5 times over 7 days. I have had two miscarriages. And have a three year old. Could I be expirencing symptoms earlier. Because of this?

It would be too early for you to be feeling anything in your uterus.
You had sex, you could be pregnant. But now you are playing the waiting game and have to wait to see what happens with your next period to test.

Ok thank u. But is it possible to get pregnant in these time frames or straight after your period?

It's possible to get pregnant any time you have sex. There are times when our ovulation is "off" so to speak. Chances are slimmer since you had just finished your period, but it's not impossible.

Last time I got pregnant I had sex straight after my period ended could it be possible that's when I produce an egg? I didn't have any syptoms until I missed my period but this time I just feel like I am my breasts have felt tender the last couple of days and yesterday and today I'm getting a yellowy creamy discharge I'm very confused

As I said, yes it is possible. Now you just have to wait to test.

You should wait until your next period is due. While some tests say that they can provide a positive result 5 days before a missed period, they tend to have a higher false negative result.
