Metallic taste/ lower back problem.
Hello, from past 11 days am having a bad metallic kind of taste in my mouth and few days following that my smell also started to feel metallic smell. Whenever I eat anything that has onion and spices the taste and smell gets more strong. My lower backs hurt a lot, did my covid test it came negative though I was covid positive in April.
My period date is suppose to be 14-15-16 of this month, missed the 1st day of period too.
Can you tell me if this is anywhere to do with pregnancy? When can I take the test? If I take the test now will it show am pregnant? Please help.

You can get a serum beta hcg test done. It's quite sensitive for very early pregnancy detection. Also period can get delayed due to covid

Wait for atleast 1 week after you missed date. If still period doesn't come than go for UPT test. This kind of symptoms no related to pregnancy.
