22/06/12 - My Belly feels swollen - could I be pregnant?

22/06/12 - Female, 19 :

 About pregnancy, i had short sex relations using a condom and without eyaculation the 6th of June, and my last period was the 26 of may. I've been taking some pills for calm fever,headache and vomits from 8th to17th because of an infection (and it says that they reduce fertility while you're taking them). My period is almost regular unless I have stress (like this month). The weeks after having sex relations and before my period is coming (like now), I feel my belly is swollen (like now), and Im not sure if I could be pregnant. Thanks

If you were a month's pregnant it's unlikely that you would feel any bigger at this stage.  

If you used a condom correctly and your partner didn't ejaculate you are probably not pregnant and the symptoms you are feeling are more likely to be due to something else (possibly your medication). 

If you continue to feel uncomfortable, have any pain or are just concerned you should visit your doctor.

As far as pregnancy is concerned, your period will probably come on normally (or possibly a bit delayed if you are really stressed out so wait at least a week after it's due before considering taking a pregnancy test.
