Do you suspect you are pregnant? If so, a pregnancy test can give you the answer one way or another. For many women, the two week wait to know if they are pregnant just adds more anxiety to deciding the best time to take a pregnancy test. One of the most important things to know if you are confused about when you should take a home pregnancy test is that you are more likely to get a negative result if it’s done too early.

Hello Olivia, no this does not necessarily mean you are pregnant, the Postinor might have caused a slight change in your cycle.

Hi there Mercy, the best time to test for pregnancy is 7 days after a missed period.
Hi, my own situation is similar to Gabriella.I had unprotected sex, but he didn’t ejaculate. But just to be careful because of precum. I used postinor 2 for the very first time in my life and I took it at the same time. I bleed for three days or more in December. In January am supposed to see my period on the 1st, But it’s 11 days late. Should I be worried
Hello Natasha, the morning after pill has been known to cause a delay and irregularity in the next upcoming period.
Hi, I had sex on the 27th November, I used postinor 2 a day after. but I bleed from 5th till like 7th of December. But it’s January and am 10 days late. It seems my breast are bigger and I usually have occasional cramp. Should I be worried. My period in November started on the 9th.
If you are late and concerned you are pregnant, take a pregnancy test. However, when you take a postinor 2 you should be aware that it can affect your next period because of the hormones and it could affect your body. Breasts becoming enlarged and occasional cramping could be symptoms of either the medication, PMS, or pregnancy, any of the above.
I had sex on 14th dec, 2017 with out protection and that evening my period happened.. and now 11th jan, 2018 periods hasn’t happen yet.
Hi ggswar. According to the menstrual calculator you today, 11 January, 2018 is when you should have started your period. If you ovulate late in your cycle you could be pregnant. However, you can take a test now or wait another few days and take one then if you haven’t gotten your period yet.
I was to see my period on the 7th 8th or 9th of November 2017 but I had an unprotected sex on the 7th morning and I missed my period and the test was positive I want to know if it’s possible I took it on the 7th or is the I did before that day because my period cycle is 30 or 31 days. I want to know when I took in.
Hello Cordelia, once your pregnancy test says you are pregnant, then you are. All the best.
My period has been regular not until when I was disvirgined in October 2017…. I was supposed to see my period in 21st November but not so.. I later got it in Dec 4(which means I got it after 13 day… I ought to get my next period on 1st of January 2018 but I’m 7 days late already…. please note that we have sex two to 3 times a week without protection but he pulls out whenever he wants to cum.. I’ve done two home pregnancy test which shows negative and I don’t feel any signs of pregnancy… can I still be pregnant
Hello Janet, retake your pregnancy test given that you are now 7 days + late.
Hi, my last period was on 27 Nov 2017 and it’s 6 Jan 2018 now. I have done so many pregnancy test till now and every result shows negative. What should I do ? Is it possible for me to still be pregnant? Or would I get my period soon ? Me and my partner have been trying for a baby anyways.
Hello Khadijah, if your period does not come within a few days then I advise that you see your doctor for a blood test for pregnancy.
Hi, i had my tubes tied on 10/10/17. 2 months went ok but on this 3rd month I am 1 day late. Do you think I could be pregnant?
Hi Maria. While it’s possible, it’s not likely a viable pregnancy as getting your tubes tied is one of the most effective forms of birth control. At this point, about 10 days later from your original comment, if you haven’t gotten your period I would take a pregnancy test and make an appointment with your doctor if you are concerned.
Hello my periods are very regular last cycle was December 3 2017 my period tracker app says period is now 5 days late I tested on Jan 3&4 both tests were negative ..I’ve been nauseous…also felt mild cramps but no discharge! My appetite is very outrageous and I tend to feel bloated all the time…What is going on?
Hi Farrah. It’s quite possible that you are pregnant, considering your symptoms and the fact that your period is late. If your are still getting negative tests and haven’t gotten your period, I would consider an appointment with your doctor to have them run a blood test as well as check you out.
Hi, I am 24 years old and I had my last period from 3rd december till 7th december. I have had sex with my husband on 9th, 22nd and 25th december. I still haven’t seen my this month period yet. I was never late before like this. Am I pregnant, and when should I take a pregnancy test to know that?
Hi Rain. At this point you should take a pregnancy test if you haven’t already. You can take one (depending on the brand) up to 5 days prior to the anticipated start of your period, however they are more accurate the closer you get to it and then when you are late.
First day of last period Nov 28 2017. Had implantation bleeding on 19-21. Took 2 pregnancy tests got negative results. What do I do now?
Hi MSWG. If you still haven’t gotten your period and you are still getting negative results on pregnancy tests, I would schedule an appointment with your doctor. They can run blood work to determine pregnancy as well as rule out any other issues that may be causing you to not get your period if you still haven’t gotten it.
Hey, I’m Kyra. I have been off depo shot for 7 months. He cum in me Dec 18 .took a test today & it was negative. Did I test too early? Any answers???
Hello Kyra, a good time to test for pregnancy is 7 days after a missed period.
The thing is since I’ve been off birth control I have no periods.
