So you may or may not be pregnant. That is something myself nor any online article will be able to determine. It's easy to search online, find symptoms to an illness, pregnancy, diseases and feel like you definitely have it. Some people will make themselves believe they have something, while others seriously do need medical attention but think their symptoms are nothing to worry about.

As always if you have persisting symptoms and are at all concerned about anything, the best thing to do is to go to the doctors. If you really think you're pregnant, spending hours online reading forum threads, articles, and medical sites are not going to give you an accurate diagnosis. But, it can give you an idea of what you are facing. Step one would be to take a pregnancy test as early as you can by what the test allows.

So you're thinking you may be pregnant, but then again your symptoms could be from other things. Here's a list of the pregnancy symptoms, but what other conditions they are connected to.

Spotting that you are sure is not caused by your period
So you start spotting and maybe have a little dreaded cramping. You may think it is implantation bleeding, but it could be from other causes. It could be due to a change in your birth control pill. Many women spot anyway when taking a birth control pill, but it doesn't mean they are pregnant. Infection is also a culprit to spotting. You may have a yeast infection or a sexually transmitted infection. If you are pregnant and you are spotting, consult your doctor right away. It could be a sign of a miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy

This is great information! I actually just published a similar article. There are lots of websites that have lists of symptoms that could mean you're pregnant, but only one real way to know - a positive test!
