Hi

this is first time i am posting my question.

I am 29 years old,got married and its been 4 years completed .I am waiting for baby over last few years.
acttually I am having my regular periods. This time my period got delayed by 7 days.today i tested with help of home pregnancy tester but it gave negative result. I am so confused that why it is getting delayed eventhough my periods before were regular .

I will be very happy if anyone suggest on this. Thanks.

I have always been regular 32 day cycle then last month had a 45 day cycle so this can happen for what reason I am still not aware!! I suggest taking another test using morning urine however some people just dont show up as early as others so if u cant wait another few days book yourself into get a blood test this is the best way to find out it very may well be that you are late due to pregnancy or it could just be stress!! :) good luck I would love to hear how you go!

I agree with vmvnpv that it can be any number of reasons!  Also, some people have a hard time with hpt's showing up positive.  When I got pregnant with my daughter, I had one EPT test show positive but then I had 2 store brand tests and at test at the health department and my family dr show up negative.  My dr had to do a blood test just to be sure I was pregnant.  If you still haven't started your period, then I would talk to your doctore and see if they will do a blood test on you to check for the HCG level.

It can be any number of reasons.  Late ovulation, no ovulation, stress or just a crazy cycle.  Or you may have tested too early and the HPT didn't pick up on the HCG levels yet.
