How Late Should Your Period Be To Test for Pregnancy?

Hi, I didn’t get my period, and now I suspect to be pregnant. But, occasionally I have irregular periods. How late should your period be to test for pregnancy?

Hi, if your period is late it doesn’t necessarily mean you are pregnant. Some time a period can be completely missed or there can be some hormone disorder. If they are too stressed, women may also not have period. Stress is the major cause of irregular periods, as it changes normal hormonal signals and it can block ovulation. Even if you do a pregnancy test, it can be false negative. Weight of person, like overweight or underweight or sudden changes in weight may be cause of delayed period. If you are taking any birth control pills or other hormone supplements, it may interfere with your periods.
