Do you mean you have not had a period in 2 months (which is what "1 month late" means), or was the first day of your last period one month ago?

If you truly haven't had a period in 2 months, ask your doctor what to do at this point.  If the first day of your last period was 30 days ago, you are only a couple of days late, in which case you should wait a bit, test in a few more days to a week.

There are many things that can cause missed periods besides pregnancy.

hello i too am very late on my period and had a tubal ligation 3 years ago i took 3 hpt and all neg i had spotting in august and september  and now nothing in october i have the symptoms of prego or something but ive heard so many different things from other women some have said most women cant get a positive on urine tests because when u get ur tubes tied ur body starts producing male hormones and prego can only  detected through blood test they called it post tubal ligation syndrom i have also read that eptopic prego sometimes are difficult to detect through urine test . im not saying these things are true , just things ive read .

You do not start producing male hormones after a tubal ligation, nor can pregnancy only be detected through a blood test.

If someone is missing periods for a prolonged period of time, they should go to the doctor.
