A member asked:

Period came on august 28th, was expected on 21st, now it's october 4, period hasn't come yet, irregular period or pregnancy, no sex since 20th august.

Maybe not preg., but: Can do a home pregnancy test. Home pregnancy tests are very accurate and not affected by foods, herbs, common illnesses, sexually transmitted diseases, or medications. A correctly done urine test gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have happened) or 1 week after missing a period.
