Periods Late For 3 Weeks, Pinkish Color Discharge, Cramps. What Could Be This?

I'm 3 weeks and for days late for my period, just today I went to use the restroom and when i wiped i saw a pinkish color of blood. I have been to the restrrom several more times today and there is nothing when i clean myself, i am cramping as if i getting ready to start my period. The last period i had was April 29 and it lasted the usual 7 days and i haven't seen my period since then.

Hi thanks for your question.
You have not mentioned in your history of any sexual contact, as pregnancy could be No 1 reason for delayed periods. Any way there are many more reasons for delayed periods other than pregnancy and anxiety (tension) is a common reason. The other common cause is hormonal imbalance. It is possible that your periods were delayed for 3 weeks and this pink discharge is beginning of your periods.
Hope this answers your question.
