Posted on Fri, 17 Jun 2016
Question: Hi my period cycle is usually regular 28 days avg. But this month my period is 10days late. I was expecting on 28th April but it started on 7th may.last time I had period on 31st march. I had B sex on 11th April,23rd Apr and 27th April. From 1st may I had heavy breast, sore nipples, on and off cramps at back and right abdomen, gas,on and off white sticky light discharge- rarely. I thought I have conceived but pregnancy test at home was negative on 7th may and bleeding started on 7th may started with light brown to heavy bleeding but no clotting. I had extensive travelling in April. Is it miscarriage or delayed period?
I don't have kids and recently started planning for baby. I have 7mm fibroid as found in sonography report in December.
Also want to inform you I had chemical pregnancy in December (confirmed by doctor) and period started after 12days late. Is it similar case this time?

Brief Answer:
Mostly due to late period as test is negative.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Thanks for writing to us. Followings are my comments:

1) As recent pregnancy test is NEGATIVE, then possible chance of pregnancy or very early miscarriage (chemical pregnancy) has been ruled out.

2) Late period may be due to hormonal imbalance, mental stress, effect of extensive traveling, over weight, irregular diet pattern, emotional upset etc.

3) Light brown bleeding is mostly associated with late period itself, old blood with endometrial tissue and vaginal or pelvic infection etc. Maintain genital hygiene properly.

4) If you have planned for pregnancy, you should involve in unprotected sex during your fertile period (D12 to D20 of regular cycle) or close to ovulation day (occurs 14 days prior to due date). Take vitamin and folic acid supplements for 3 months.

Hope, I have answered your query. Wish your good health and take care.
