I have very regular periods and usually no pms symptoms. I was due to have my period 4 days ago. My armpit glands are swollen and breast tender, so I’m just thinking if these are symptoms of pregnancy? I don’t remember that had implantation bleeding and there’s no stomach cramps. It’s very stressful for me to have pregnancy test! I know that tender breasts may be symptom of pms, so I wonder what swollen armpits may mean.

Swollen armpits are definitely not typical symptom of pregnancy. Tender breast may mean both pregnancy and pms. But swollen glands are sign of body’s defence against infection! They are part of immune system and fight against causal agents of infections. Maybe it is your decreased immunity reason for being late. It happens often to me. Every time I lose on weight I develop irregular cycle. But anyway if I were you I’d face with pregnancy test!
