A member asked:

What could a metallic taste in mouth and late period mean? could they be related?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

They could very well be related. If you had unprotected sex during ovulation and missed your period, pregnancy is very likely. Metallic or change in taste is a common symptom during pregnancy.

Dr Kuitems and another doctor agreed
