Pregnancy Symptoms: Early Signs That You Might Be Pregnant!

While a positive result is indicative of whether the woman is pregnant or not, this test doesn t confirm the pregnancy. Once a woman gets a positive result, it would be right to see a doctor and undergo the required tests to get a confirmation of the pregnancy. Read the instructions that come with the home kit carefully before beginning the test to get an accurate result. Also avoid any contamination of the test strip, to avoid getting a false positive or a false negative result.

All the above mentioned are the early signs of pregnancy and can lead to the inference that the woman is pregnant. Other than these, few other signs include spotting, aversion to smells and fatigue. Waiting till the individual misses a period is the correct time to perform a home pregnancy test following which a Doctor should be consulted.

Sudden aversion to smells that the woman had no issue with earlier is a common early sign of pregnancy. The intensity of this aversion depends on woman to woman. The cause for this is the increased release of progesterone during early stages of pregnancy. In the case of such a strong aversion to smells, it is advisable to wear a mask that doesn t cause the individual to gag or get upset following smelling a strong smell.

While the probability of getting pregnant becomes greatly reduced by using the aforementioned, one should know that only abstinence is the fool-proof method of avoiding a pregnancy. A torn or punctured condom may not prove to be a good barrier and a dislodged Copper T device is equally unsuccessful for this purpose as well. Using condom with a latex safe spermicidal gel is the most successful form of avoiding a pregnancy following abstinence.
