Should I take a pregnancy test?

I had unprotected sex almost a month ago and my body has been changing recently. For example, I've been having a lot of mood swings I've been feeling a lot more tired recently and i. e. also developed a a bumpy rash in between my breasts. My stomach has also been bloated and hard and it's not my period. Do you think I should take a test?

You can take a pregnancy test (sold at Pharmacies) if you have not had a regular menstrual cycle since the encounter 1 month ago.

If you are missing your period, yes, you can take a test and also tests for STD.

Thanks for your question. To be straight forward, Yes! Kindly take a home self pregnancy test. As the saying goes, "if it quarks like a duck, it is most likely a duck."
