Could I be pregnant? Could it be ectopic? The first day of my last regular menstrual cycle was March 27. On April 28 I had two days of very light bleeding. Date of conception was April 7/8. I went to the doctors, two to be exact. On May 2, my own doctor just wanted to check my blood because I am anemic and since this was a follow-up appointment he wanted to see if things had gotten better. He also wanted me to have a pregnancy test done. No internal was done at this point. I have fibroids, all 3 grew in 3 years from 3 cm to 4.8, my doctor believes that the anemia was caused by it. The tests came back negative but my ferritin was -6 and anemia is getting worst, even though I have been on Palifer for the past 2 ½ months. He wants to check me again in the next couple of months. Next, I went to see another doctor on May 10, she took a urine pregnancy test and did an internal. She said my uterus was enlarged, and my cervix was sort of softened. However, when the results came back from the urine test it was negative, so she said I was not pregnant. She then suggested I go back to my own doctor because she did not think I had a gynaecology problem. She also said my bleeding was light in April because sometimes if you have had a lot of bleeding in the past, you just don't have anything else inside to come out. These are my symptoms: nausea, light-headed, cannot eat much because my stomach gets upset, enlarged breast, when pressure is put just above my pelvic bone - I find it to be tender, I am always tired - I sleep every day at the same time for about 2 hours after work, smells irritate me, (lately I have been getting shooting pains in my pelvic area, just occasionally) I need help, if I am not pregnant then what is the problem? My only other alternative is to go to Emergency.
