A member asked:

I'm having mild cramps and my period is almost a week late? am i pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. William Haehl answered

Not sure: It can be normal to be a week late but the most common cause of missed menses is pregnancy. Do a home pregnancy test as directed on the package.
