See below: Obtain a home pregnancy test. They turn positive at about the time you'd be ready to start your next expected period. If negative, repeat in 1 week and call your doctor.

Evaluation: Recommend your gynecologist to evaluate your irregular menses promptly due to your anemia. With irregular menses, there is no clear day when to take a home pregnancy test.
