A member asked:

My husband had a no scalpel vasectomy ten years ago.. we have an active sex life and i have yet to get my period this month. could i be pregnant?

Pregnancy test: If you missed your period by 4-5 days, do a home pregnancy test. If the result is negative repeat the test 4-5 days later unless you get a period by then. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions for the test carefully. Alternatively you could get a blood test for HCG level that is more sensitive and specific.
