Is Delayed Menstruation A Symptom Of Pregnancy?

Hi, I have missed my period for about 2days now. I used the home pregnancy test twice but had negative results. I feel funny in my stomach, bloated, belching, nauseous. Sometime in March, I had hormonal imbalance which the Doctor said prevented my menses from coming. I was placed on a 30day medication after which my menses resumed. I saw my menses in May, June and July. My question is, am I pregnant or is the a reoccurring hormonal imbalance ? Thank you

Hello dear
Understand your concern
Delayed period for 2 day is not suggest pregnancy.
Pregnancy test will give positive result 7-9 days after missed period.
So repeat pregnancy test after 7 days to confirm the pregnancy.
Stomach pain, bloating, bleaching and nausea are not confirmatory symptoms of pregnancy.
It could be a indigestion and hormone imbalance.
If your period will not come in next 7 days and pregnancy test will come negative then it most likely due to other causes.
Meanwhile
Avoid stress, drink plenty of water, take small frequent meal rather than large meal, avoid stress and do regular exercise.
Take ginger capsule and antacid tablet.
In absence of pregnancy, period can be induced by the progesterone pill.
Hope I have answered your question.
