Question : My period is 4 days late. I have cramps slightly less mild than my normal PMS CRAMPS. I am spotting lightly. We have been trying to conceive and my doctor put me on a cycle of clomid this month. I have taken a few home pregnancy test and they have all come back negative. My period has never been late before. Is it possible to be pregnant?

Brief Answer:
Minimal chances of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
If several pregnancy tests are negative then chances of pregnancy are very less.
Delay of periods can be due to various other reasons like stress, exercise or even change diet so don't worry about it and start clomid as advised.
But if you are very anxious then can skip this cycle and take clomid in next cycle instead and repeat pregnancy after 1 week.
All the best.
Regards
Dr Manisha
