Plan B ?'s: Even if your menstrual cycle is fairly regular, stress (work, school, etc.) will sometimes delay ovulation, which in turn delays the next menstrual event. A "blood pregnancy test" measures HCG, and it is very accurate. If your period does not occur in the next week, repeat the blood pregnancy test, and if negative, see your gyn for further testing.
