A member asked:
My period should've came yesterday, or today... usually it's 1-2 days late... should i do a pregnancy test to be sure i'm not pregnant? i'm scared.

Can wait a few days: A urine pregnancy test, done correctly, gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. If done sooner, a positive result is likely real, but a negative result may be due to testing too soon, and thus lead to a repeat test. If a woman gets her normal regular period, then she is not pregnant, and a test is not needed.
