Pregnancy

Many young sexually active women wonder at some point whether they may be pregnant.

The most obvious sign of pregnancy is a missed period (although a missed period does not necessarily mean you are pregnant). Breast tenderness, nausea, tiredness and frequent urination are also common signs of pregnancy. If you have missed a period and think there is a chance you may be pregnant, get tested. If you are pregnant, the sooner you know, the more time you have to think about the options that are available to you.
