Can a premenstrual symptom be mistaken for pre-pregnancy symptom?

Yes, premenstrual symptoms and early pregnancy symptoms can be very similar, making it difficult to tell the difference. For example, both PMS and pregnancy can cause:

- fatigue

- nausea

- mood swings

- bloating

- breast tenderness

- headaches

If you are not sure whether you are experiencing PMS or early pregnancy symptoms, it is always best to take a pregnancy test to confirm.
