My period is 4 days late now which is unusual for me as im mostly regular. We werent really trying but not fully careful either. Does a miss always mean pregnant or can it be something else?
Not always na. A missed period can be from stress, thyroid, weight changes, PCOS, lots of things. But if ur trying or had a chance of it, a missed period is a good reason to take a home test and confirm.
A missed period is just one possible sign dear, not a sure thing. So many reasons can delay it. Dont stress, give it a few days, take a test, and if its still off see a gynac calmly.
I keep wondering the same thing every month tbh. From what I learnt, a miss is one of the first signs but not a confirm. If its a few days late, a simple home test gives a clearer answer than just waiting and worrying.
I had this exact confusion! Mine was late and I panicked, but it can be other reasons too. I did a test after a few days delay and it was positive for me. Just test to be sure, dont keep guessing.
For me missed periods were super common because of PCOS, so it didnt always mean pregnancy. I never assumed either way. Best is to take a test, and if periods keep missing, get ur hormones checked by a doctor.
