I had unprotected sex a few times right
around the time I was supposed to ovulate.
And now I have been feeling hungry all the
time, really tired, having to go to the
bathroom alot, gaining weight, tender
breasts, backaches, headaches, and food
cravings. Today i got my period but i am
still having these symptoms. Does this
mean I could be pregnant?

have you missed a period?
the only way you'd know if you were
pregnant, for sure, is if you take a test.
a home pregnancy test works best if used
the first day of your missed period or any
day after that. there are tests that work
earlier, but they might not yield an
accurate result since your body, if you
are pregnant, isn't producing enough of
the pregnancy hormone hCG.
i'm 9-weeks pregnant. and before taking a
home pregnancy test, i had next to no
symptoms. even now, my symptoms aren't
major.
if you think you might be pregnant or feel
there is a chance you could be, you might
be fooling your body into acting the way a
pregnant woman's does. i would say wait
until your period comes or doesn't come
& take a test.
good luck.

These 'symptoms' can be attributed to pms.
Symptoms do not mean you are pregnant.
Most women don't gain weight in the first
few weeks of pregnancy. Breasts usually
don't become tender until your missed
period. As well as headaches, backaches,
frequent urination, etc. Those don't
happen for awhile.
If you continue to feel you are pregnant,
see your doctor.
