What Are The Symptoms Of Pregnancy?
Hi, I'm worried I may be pregnant. I'm currently a 20 year old student in a long term relationship with my boyfriend of nearly 4 years. I'm 6 days late for my period, my cycle can vary from 28-35 days. However, on 30th July I had sex and the condom came off after he ejaculated. I noticed some spotting on the 5th August after a hard work out on an exercise bike. I've had PMS symptons for nearly 2 weeks which is normal for me however I keep having these symptoms but I haven't started my period yet. I've been stressing myself out about it which I know can make my period even later. I haven't taken a pregnacy test yet because I'm terrified I could be pregnant and I don't know who to turn to. Any advice you can give would be much appreciated, thank you

Welcome to HealthcareMagic,
Condom slippage or tearing is a cause of concern as it may result in pregnancy. In your case as your periods are delayed by a week, I will advise you to do a morning sample urine pregnancy test. Urine pregnancy test are simple, rapid and reliable pregnancy confirmation test. Take early morning, mid stream urine for testing. If the test line is same or darker than the control line it indicates pregnancy.
If it turns to be positive, you should contact your obstetrician for further check up. Hope that answers your question.
