A member asked:

I got my first covid shot on 8/18 and was supposed to get my period on sept 4th. could the shot be delaying my period? im very regular last time i missed a period i was pregnant but i took an early pregnancy test and it showed negative?

The two are likely coincidental. You may wish to repeat the home pregnancy test in 4-5 days, unless you get a period by then. Consult this site. http://www.nichd.nih.gov/health/topics/menstruation/conditioninfo/Pages/causes.aspx Wish you good health!

Covid immunization should not delay a period. Take another pregnancy test, and see a trusted ob-gyn to discuss options if test is positive or period does not start spontaneously within three weeks.
