HI,
I understand your concern.
21st October,( the expected day of period) was earlier to test by urine pregnancy test. Please repeat test now ( after minimum 8 days delay in periods).. it may turn +ve to confirm pregnancy.
In case its -ve, the delay is likely due to hormonal imbalance.. which is to be investigated by hormonal assay, USG abdomen & treated according to cause. Consult a gynecologist please.
Thanks.
