How Long Should After Delayed Period Be Pregnancy Test Taken?
I was on birth control with the arm implant and have been sexually active. For 2 years and now i took out the implant i had my period 2 days after i had it removed. I am late 3 weeks on my period. I have already taken a home pregnancy test and it came out negative. Is it normal to have a delay on my period?Is it to soon to have taken a pregnancy test?If its to early for the test. how long shall i wait to take the pregnancy test again??

Hi dear thanks for writing to Healthcare Magic..long time on pills is one of the cause for delay periods along with pregnancy if unprotected sex has happened..urinary pregnancy test is not confirmatory it can come false negative, I advise you to get the blood HCG level and USG under the observation of gynaecologist after a 3 week of delay periods.
hope this will help you
thanks and regards
