Take a test
See a doctor
Use other forms of birth control or have your BF learn to properly use a condom so it does not break or split.
If this really worries you then stop having sex

What is CVS?

Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a process of testing the fetus during pregnancy for congenital abnormalities. A piece of the placenta is taken for biopsy early during pregnancy. The placenta has the same genetic and biochemical make up as the fetus. The test is usually done between the 10th and 12th week of pregnancy and is as safe as amniocentesis. It scores over amniocentesis in that it can be done earlier in pregnancy.

When is it done?

The test is recommended in women who are at risk of having a complicated pregnancy. Some of the cases in which the test is recommended are:

Mothers older than 35 years

A prior child with genetic abnormality

Family history of children with chromosomal abnormality

The mother has had two or more miscarriages

Family history of a single sex disorder like muscular degeneration, haemophilia etc.

Which conditions can be detected by CVS?

Some of the common conditions that can be diagnosed by the test are:

Cystic fibrosis

Down’s syndrome

Phenylketonuria

Sickle cell anaemia

Tay-Sach’s disease

How is it done?

Before the procedure is performed, an ultrasound examination of the pelvis is done to ascertain the position of the placenta and the size and position of the fetus. This determines which kind of CVS to be done. The procedure can be done by two ways – through the abdomen (transabdominal) and through the vagina (transvaginal or transcervical).

The patient is made to lie on her back with her feet up in stirrups. In the transvaginal procedure, the area around the vagina is cleaned and a thin, plastic tube is inserted through the vagina and guided through the cervix to reach the placenta to suck out a small amount of the tissue. The access is monitored on an ultrasound machine. In the transabdominal procedure, a local anaesthetic is given to numb the area. Then a needle is inserted into the placenta through the abdomen and a small amount of the tissue is sucked out.

Both the procedures are relatively pain free. A slight cramping may be felt in the transvaginal procedure. A little abdominal heaviness may be felt after the anaesthetic wears off.

What happens after the procedure?

The patient is allowed to go home after a couple of hours. Strenuous activity should be avoided for 1-2 days. There may be a little spotting for about a week, which stops automatically. This is more so if the transvaginal procedure is followed. Preliminary results are available within 4 days while the final result may take about 2 weeks.

What is the advantage of CVS?

The biggest advantage of CVS is that it can help detect genetic or chromosomal abnormalities very early in pregnancy. This leaves enough time for the termination of pregnancy, if required.

What are the disadvantages or risks of CVS?

In some cases, albeit rare, the test may be misleading. The placenta may sometimes have a genetic defect that may not harm the fetus itself. In such cases, further testing is required.

The biggest risk of the procedure is miscarriage. About 1-2 pregnancies in a 100 result in miscarriage. This rate is a little higher than that of amniocentesis (1/200 pregnancies). Some other risks may be:

Rupture of the fetal membranes

Leaking of amniotic fluid

Cramping and vaginal bleeding

In rare cases, infection resulting in flu-like symptoms.

The procedure should not be done in women who are in an advanced stage of their pregnancy. It should also not be done if the shape of the uterus is unusual or if there is vaginal infection. A disadvantage of the test is that it does not detect neural defects like spina bifida etc.

You should go to a doctor that could be really bad, it is best to use more than one form of birth control you know, and it is too early to do a home test, I think the soonest you can take a test before your due for you period is like 4 days or a week or something. I hope I helped.

You might not be pregnant. The soreness and inflamation of your breasts' are probably from post-premensteral. If you have taken two tests' and there both negative, I would'nt worrie about a thing until next month! Hopefully your old enough to know better, and know that raising a baby is not easy. It's harder when your single. BE SAFE!! and good luck!

You may possibly be pregnant but your best bet might be to go see a doctor. The way your boobs are feeling, may be a effect from your period even though it may not have ever happend before, its still possible. Your body does some weird things and you may never know why.

the best thing to do is wait till u are late,although i have to say i had those symptoms very early on in both my pregnancies but please remember that very rarely happens to have such extreme symptoms so early on!every woman is different and you may just be on your way to having a very bad period, please ignore the idiot christina who has given you a stupid answer there is a time and a place for people like her and its not in the pregnancy section where people are worried about pregnancy!

Wait until your period is supposed to start. If you're late, take another test first thing in the morning.

I'm married so if it happens to me it will be ok :)

If you are over 20 then I'm sorry and I don't really care... but if you are under 20 then I'd say you are a sl*t and need to keep them shut!
