Are Delayed Periods Suggestive Of Pregnancy?

Pregnancy unlikely
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Delayed periods can be due to stress, pregnancy or hormonal imbalance like hypothyroidism, hyperprolactinemia or polycystic ovarian syndrome.
If the urine pregnancy test is negative, then the pregnancy is ruled out.
If stress is not a factor, then the hormonal imbalance should be ruled out by getting thyroid function test, serum prolactin levels and ultrasound done.
The diagnosis should be confirmed and appropriate treatment should be taken.
Pregnancy is highly unlikely in your case.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
