What Causes Delay In Period?
I m worrying because my period is already 4 days late. And I m not sure if I m pregnant because last month, I do have period and after that, my boyfriend and I didn t sex anymore. The last time we sex is before I get my period last month. Is there any possibilities that I am pregnant? He also doesn t ejaculate inside my vagina. I m afraid of taking the pregnancy test.

Hello dear
Understand your concern
To become pregnant, full penetration intercourse that ejaculate semen in to the vagina in unsafe period is required. As you did no intercourse after period chance of pregnancy is very less. You should worry if period is missed by 10 days and you should go for pregnancy test. Just wait for period to come. Also notes the causes of delayed period: excessive stress, thyroid problem, hormonal imbalance, ovarian dysfunction, sudden change in life style, weight gain or loss, endometriosis, dysfunctional uterine bleeding. If period will not come you should have to rule out above causes by consulting the gynecologist after investigation. Meanwhile start stretching and relaxation exercise, avoid stress, eat healthy diet with fruits like pine apple, orange and papaya.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
