A member asked:
Why is my period a week late b/c i was sexually active & something was done incorrectly even though it was protected sex or b/c on & off birth control?

Late Period: When your period is late and you have been sexually active, with or without birth control, the first thing to do is to take a pregnancy test. Best method of pregnancy test is a beta hcg level drawn from your blood. There can be many reasons for an irregular period, after pregnancy is ruled out. :)
