Im almost 17.
Ive sore tender breasts and feeling sick the past few days. Found a lump in my breast as well that's tender, which I'm getting checked out tomorrow. I've got really dizzy and feel drained the past few days as well. If I stand up I feel really weak like my sugar levels have dropped instantly. Could I be pregnant? My period is due soon but I'm afraid I am pregnant and Im too impatient to wait for it I will get a test just wanted to know if I most likely am

Hi Maeve,

I know it can be frustrating not knowing for certain, but there just is not a way to know unless you test. Certainly some of what you have been experiencing could be due to early pregnancy, some people do start having symptoms before a missed period, but the majority do not, and it could also be due to fighting an illness and possibly due to your period about to come on.

Since you are getting the lump checked out tomorrow, ask about possible pregnancy. Usually testing won't happen until you have actually missed a period, but your doctor may do one while there anyway.

Obviously if you are not wanting to be pregnant, be certain to use adequate protection every time you might engage in having sex... no exceptions. This might be something else to ask your doctor about while there. Good luck and hope you are feeling better soon.
