I'm on prednisone and i heard it could delay your period..i'm 3 days late and i have been cramping a lot..is that a delay or could i be pregnant??

Take a test : If you think you might be pregnant check then check a home pregnancy test. They are cheap, reliable and available at any pharmacy. Prednisone does not delay periods. Whatever problem is requiring you to take prednisone could potentially be related.
