Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. As you had unprotected intercourse around the time of ovulation there is possibility of pregnancy. But just by symptoms we cannot come to one conclusion. Though your symptoms are suggesting, as these type of symptoms can be seen in premenstrual phase also, we need confirmative test. So, better to wait till your expected date of periods, if you miss your periods, on the same day you can go for blood test for pregnancy. If you want to choose urine test for pregnancy, better to wait 4 to 5 days more after expected date and do the test to avoid false results. Meanwhile if symptoms are severe, you can go for analgesics like Paracetamol which is relatively safe even in pregnancy. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
