Hello dear,welcome to HCM forum.
You had your last period on July 30th.
So it is almost 1 week of missing the period,and it is better to do a urine pregnancy test.Most of the kits will detect pregnancy at this stage.
Anyhow,if it is negative,just repeat the test after 5-7 days.If this is also neg,you are not pregnant.You can wait for the next month.If the irregularity persist on the coming month also,we will need a detailed evaluation,for which your doctor will guide you.
Hope I have answered your query.
Wishing you good health.
Thank you.
