Delayed Periods. Home Pregnancy Test Positive. Any Other Test To Be Done To Confirm?

Hello Doctor.

My last period was on 10th April 2013. Although my periods are not regular (30-35 days), this month I still didn't get my periods. I did the pregnancy test this morning and the result was positive. But to confirm, I did it again with new test kit and found positive results. Should I consider that I am pregnant? or is there any other way to confirm the same?

Appreciate your help,
Regards,
Vaishali.

Hi,
You have confirmed pregnancy. As you do not get regular periods, you should see a gynecologist for an evaluation and get a trans-vaginal sonogram to get a proper gestational age as your date of ovulation cannot be predicted exactly as with a regular cycle. Hope your query is answered. You may contact if you need further clarifications. Wish you good health.
