My periods are usually on time but this month I am 5 days late. I have mild cramps like it will come, but nothing yet. Should I take a test now or wait few more days?
For me a missed period was literally the first hint, did anyone else just know somehow? But i also remember my friend got all worried and it was just stress. Best to wait and test instead of guessing, the waiting is the hardest part na.
Haan beta, late period is often the first thing women notice. But it is not sure shot, sometimes it is just tension or tiredness. Wait two three days and do a home test, that will tell you clearly. Dont keep worrying in your mind.
It can be one of the first signs yes, but its not proof. Stress, travel, weight changes, thyroid, all can delay a period too. If you have a chance of being pregnant, just take a test a day or two after the missed date, that settles it.
Honestly i would be careful jumping to conclusions, my periods were always irregular with PCOS so a delay rarely meant pregnancy for me. It can be a sign but also so many other things. Test if theres a chance, and if periods are often late, mention it to your gynac.
