Could I Be Pregnant As I Have Delayed Periods And Cramps?

Hi, I am 12 days late but have been experiencing cramping and pelvic pain over the past 2 weeks. I have had 4 negative pregnancy tests. I am not nauseous, fatigued, experiencing headaches, or any other symptoms. I am typically regular maybe a day or two variance. Could I be pregnant? Would a blood test be warratned?

hello,
i can understand your concern.
if you had an unprotected sex in your last cycle, the chances of you getting pregnant are pretty high. 12 day delay strongly points out towards pregnancy as you have regular periods.
i would advise an ultra sound and a blood test to detect pregnancy. urine tests take longer time than blood tests to get positive.
the delay can also be unrelated to pregnancy.it can be due to stress or an hormonal imbalance.
the first thing is to rule out pregnancy.
hence get the tests advised and the further things can be managed as per the results.
please get back to us with the reports.
thanks for choosing HCM
