What Causes Delayed Period Along With Pain In Abdomen And Legs?

Hello Doctor! I am 23 yrs old and i am married for 1 and a half yrs. before marriage i use to get my periods in 28 days and after marriage it fluctuated between 28 to 32 days (it has never been delayed in my life more than 32 days). I have never missed a period right from my puberty. now its 35 days since i got my periods. I got my last period on july 1st. I thought of testing for pregnancy but i experience sum of the pre menstrual symptoms like abdominal and leg (cough muscle) pain which I usually get before periods. Does these indicate pregnancy or PMS? I would really be very happy if i am pregnant. Shall i proceed doing a home pregnancy test? or should i wait for few more days?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

You can consider doing the test now.

Pregnancy tests detect the HCG hormone, this is detectable by day 11 to 14 after conception.
It is possible that this time would have passed. If you do not think this is the case then wait 3 to 4 more days before doing the test.

I hope this helps
