Maam, i am 8 days late with my period.?can i still expect periods? or should i undergo pregnancy test? but am not mentally prepared for a pregnancy!!

Take pregnancy test: Even if one is not mentally prepared for a pregnancy, finding out at the very beginning of pregnancy, you can make life changing decisions, such as taking a prenatal vitamin and stop drinking alcohol. If your test is negative, you still get a regular cycle

If missed period...: Pregnancy is the most common cause of a missed period. If not pregnant, other causes of a late or missed period include: excessive weight loss or weight gain, increased exercising, emotional stress, having an illness, traveling, medicines (especially birth control pills), hormonal disorders, etc… A visit to one’s Ob-Gyn doctor is a good idea if symptoms are persistent, recurring, or worrisome.
