My period is late, I have tender breasts and have been felling sick. Am I pregnant?

Pregnancy signs and symptoms are different for different women. Some women might have some or all of these symptoms and not be pregnant. Or, they could have no symptoms and be pregnant. Some of these symptoms could actually be something else entirely so you may need to go to your doctor regardless.

The only way to know if you are pregnant is to have a test. You can make an appointment at Family Planning, with your local Sexual Health service or your own doctor. You can also purchase home pregnancy test from any chemist or most supermarkets. Tests are usually accurate from two weeks after sex.
