    Unsure if I'm pregnant, home tests unreliable
    I got my period a couple of days late this month but it only lasted 3 days opposed to my usual 5 and the flow was not as heavy as usual. I've been done with my period for about 4 days now but I still have the bloated feeling and my stomach feels quite hard right underneath my belly button, above my pubic bone and on the sides where the ovaries are. The only other symptoms I am experiencing is fatigue and back pain. What are the chances that I am pregnant?

    I find home tests to be unreliable because I had a previous pregnancy that I tested for 3 times and all the tests came up negative. It wasn't until I went to the doctor that I found out I was pregnant but miscarried soon after.

    If you do not trust home tests, go to a planned parenthood center, or your doctor.

    Since you got your period, I do not think you are pregnant, simply late and light. Which can happen. However if you are still worried, get a blood test from your doctor.
