Have Missed Periods. Have Painful Back. Urinating Frequently. Had Protected Sex. Taking Honey. Have Cough. Pregnant?

Hello Doctor,
My period is late by 2days. I have been having pains in my back and urinating frequently too. I had sex with my boyfriend but we used protection at all times. I've been taking honey and lime juice for a persistent cough for almost a month now. I'm not sure if I'm. Pregnant or this is just a period delay. Please advise.

Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

You may have both the conditions, either period is delayed or you are pregnant.
Methods used for protection are not 100% safe.
You should confirm it by urine pregnancy test.
It is very simple test and two vertical lines on card confirms pregnancy.
On the other side, It is not uncommon to have delayed periods even in ladies with history of regular period.
So, you just confirm it and manage accordingly.

Take Care
Dr.Indu Bhushan
