Pregnancy symptoms at 6th week
My home pregnancy test came positive on 25th May. Based on my last period and a regular cycle, I believe I am in my 7th week of pregnancy now.
After the positive test, I experienced strong symptoms like extreme fatigue, bloating, food aversions, craving cold and salty foods, and severe breast tenderness. However, over the past few days, these symptoms have noticeably reduced. I still feel a little tired and some breast pain while pressing, but the overall intensity has become much less.
I also feel hungry and food cravings have returned as they used to be earlier. There has been no bleeding or cramping. I have also been travelling daily for approximately 50 mins for work.
As I am in my 7th week, shall I visit a gynaecologist and what all tests should be done

A reduction in symptoms can be normal, especially if you’re still feeling some fatigue and breast sensitivity. Since your cravings have returned and there’s no bleeding or cramping, this is reassuring. However, an early ultrasound is essential to rule out any concerns definitively.
Next Steps
• Visit gynecologist Asap
• Get an ultrasound and basic antenatal blood tests
• Start taking Folic Acid (if not already)

Hi ,
The 7th week is a good time to confirm pregnancy with USG .
If everything turns out to be normal , vanishing symptoms can be labelled as normal.
