I've been feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit recently and I'm worried that I'm pregnant, but I haven't bought any test strips yet. How can I check if I'm pregnant without using any test strips?

You can determine pregnancy without using a test strip by measuring basal body temperature and clinical symptoms, but because each person's situation is different, you cannot rely entirely on self-examination to determine.

Basal body temperature measurement method: After ovulation, a woman's body temperature will rise by 0.3-0.5 degrees. If the temperature rises for more than 16-18 days, it means that there is a possibility of pregnancy. The monitoring of basal body temperature requires at least six hours of deep sleep and the body temperature is measured while lying still.

Determination of clinical symptoms: After a woman becomes pregnant, she will first experience amenorrhea. If a woman of childbearing age is usually healthy, has a regular menstrual cycle, does not take effective contraception during intercourse, and her menstruation is delayed for more than ten days, she is generally suspected of early pregnancy. At the same time, after a period of amenorrhea, if there are symptoms such as drowsiness, poor mental state, emotional instability, dizziness, nausea, breast pain, etc., which last for a long time, and the breast volume gradually increases, then there is a possibility of pregnancy. However, everyone's physical condition is different, and it is not recommended to rely entirely on self-examination to avoid affecting the body due to misjudgment. It is recommended to use early pregnancy test strips to test morning urine or go to the hospital to draw blood for HCG to accurately determine whether you are pregnant, so as to make various preparations for pregnancy.

If a woman is not ready for pregnancy, it is recommended that both parties take strict contraceptive measures during intercourse. However, if pregnancy is detected, various examinations need to be carried out and the doctor's instructions need to be followed.
