Late Periods, Used Cocaine. Pregnant Or Side Effect Of Cocaine?

I used a little cocain about a week ago for like 3 days. I didn't use a lot and I haven't used it since. My period was due yesterday or today and has yet to come. What I want to ask is that can that little use of cocain really make my period late or should I take a pregnancy test.....PLEASE LET ME KNOW AS SOON AS YOU CAN.....THANKS

the development of baby takes place in two phases: First phase is develpment of baby and the different structures of body. Second phase is growth of the baby along with that body parts. so the first part is very important and any drug that harms the baby can produce birth defects especially during this period. Coccain is not recommended in pregnant lady and it have birth defects. You have taken in small amount so the risk may less but its still there. The opinion is not to take any more of this or any kind of drug without consultation of your physician and get sonography done at regular intervals.
