A member asked:

Period is 5 days late and have thick creamy cervical mucus. is this normal? will my period still start? do not have any pregnancy symptoms.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Check pregnancy test: Sounds like you may not have ovulated this cycle, and that's why your period has not come. But pregnancy is always possible in sexually active women. See your doctor about testing for these irregular cycles, and treatment.
