[|AI|]  Hello MunibaThanks for writing to us with your health concern. The symptoms that you mention are not specific. Sometimes, they might indicate an early pregnancy. They can also indicate pre menstrual symptoms. There is no point in relying on any of them, to confirm the presence or absence of a pregnancy. It is always better to take a blood pregnancy test. You should take it on the date recommended by your clinic. After day 3 transfers, the best time to take a pregnancy test is 2 weeks later. A home strip test is not reliable at all. Continue taking the progesterone supplements till prescribed.Don't stress out, it will negatively impact the pregnancy. All the best. Take care.
