How do I know if I am pregnant?

There are many signs of pregnancy. The most common one is missing a period. Other signs are tender breasts and feeling sick. However these signs can be caused by something else, so the only way to know for sure is to have a pregnancy test.

You buy pregnancy test from chemists and supermarkets. Alternatively, you can have them done by a professional at Family Planning clinics, Sexual Health Service, Youth Health centres, nurse or doctor. Pregnancy tests are usually accurate from two weeks after sex.
