In August I had it on, 23 August. usually i get bad cramps before my period, i have been geting them but they arent that bad and then they just go away. i havent had sex but my boyfirend has fingered me. is it possible to get pregnant if he had a little bit of sperm on his hand? or am i just getting all worried over nothing.. I have gained some weight since past months.
1. since there is a delay in periods with usual signs of premenstrual tension absent thus check with home pregnancy test [HPT], for positive signs of pregnancy, also it could be due to certain lifestyle changes were done recently [if any] like: - excessive stress - loosing or putting too much of weight [present] - heavy exercises - suffering from PCOD [polycystic ovarian disease] or having a high level of prolactin [hormone]
2. If UPT comes negative for pregnancy, it is best to seek suggestion to know why you have missed your periods, a Gynecologist would be ideal to consult, for appropriate examination/investigations
