Unusual tiredness,
Nausea,
Going to the bathroom more then normal,
Headaches and felt light headed.

Could i be pregnant?

Answer 1

You could be...but probably not. You could also have a cold or the flu, or low blood sugar, or even pre-diabetes.

If you miss one period, you should probably check into a home pregnancy test, if you miss two, or if the preg test is positive, you should run to the doctor right away.

The symptoms you list are pretty common for a large variety of ailments. It sounds to me like you have been sufficiently careful such that you are probably not pregnant.

Answer 2

You are using a condom at the wrong times. A week before your period is when you are highly unlikely to become pregnant. And you are at a higher risk for pregnancy around the middle of your cycle... beyond a week after your period.
Yes you could be pregnant. Take a test if you are late for your period.

Answer 3

First the condoms are pointless, because your most fertile time is 14 days before your period starts on average. You are using them when you are least fertile. If you are regular with your pills you probably aren't pregnant, but you could be.

Only way to be sure is to wait and see if you miss your period, and if you do, take a test.

Answer 4

Anything is possible. Take a pregnancy test. Your symptoms could be other things rather than pregnancy. You didnt mention if you had missed your period or not.

Answer 5

It's possible. You should get a pregnancy test a couple days before your next expected period.

Answer 6

Just take a test if you miss your period.

Answer 7

It's possible, definitely take a pregnancy test to be sure.
