Suggest Treatment For Delayed Menstruation
Brief Answer:
Information
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
If you have had unprotected intercourse (i.e. no birth control), it is possible to be pregnant. If it has been 7 days of missed period, a home pregnancy test should be accurate at this point, so I recommend that you take a test.
If you have a history of irregular periods, it is possible that this is just a late period. And it could be a late period even if you don't have a history of irregularity.
So at this point, I recommend going and getting a pregnancy test and taking it.
