Is Delayed Menstruation A Symptom Of Pregnancy?

Hi I am going on 4 weeks late of my period and it has also been a month since I last had intercourse. I took a pregnancy test 3 days ago and it was negative but I am normally on time. I had a baby 11 months ago and I was just wondering could I really be pregnant because I ve heard of cases where women have negatives and are really pregnant especially after having a baby. Do you have any advice?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Delayed period by 4 week is not normal.
I advice you to go for USG scan and blood HCG test to confirm the pregnancy as it is accurate test.
If your pregnant and you do not want baby then terminate it by abortion pill under the advice of gynecologist.
In absence of pregnancy, other causes are hormonal imbalance, ovarian dysfunction, thyroid disorder, stress and change in the diet.
In the absence of pregnancy, period can be induced by giving progesterone pill.
So consult the gynecologist and take proper advise.
Hope this may help you
