Am I Pregnant With Delayed Periods,sore Breasts And Negative HPT?
Im 45 years old and I m 2 weeks late with my period. I have taken 2 home pregnancy teats both which came back with negative results. I m experiencing some signs of pregnancy...sore nipples and feeling tired. I have always been regular and never missed a period with the excepting of the 3 times that i have been pregnant. I m wondering if this could be due to entering menopause or could I have gotten a false negative on the home pregnancy tests.

Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Delayed periods can be due to pregnancy, stress, perimenopausal period, or hormonal disturbances like hypothyroidism.
If the urine pregnancy test is negative, then pregnancy is ruled out.
I would suggest you to get your hormonal profile done including thyroid hormone levels and if normal, then you can safely wait for the periods for another2-3 weeks.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
