Should I Be Taking HPT For Not Getting Periods, Having Mucus Discharge, Light Brown Spotting?

I am 36 years old. I had the essure coils done almost two years ago and an endometrial ablation done almost one year ago. I was expecting my period almost a week ago and nothing. I had some white mucus discharged and now two days of light brown spotting. I ve been cramping all week long. I m on day 33 of my cycle and wondering if I should be taking a HPT...Any reply would be helpful. Thank you.

Welcome to HCM.
Sometime cycle may be 3 to 5 days early or late due to heavy work load,stress,anxiety,some diet,hormonal imbalance,anemia.
So wait for more 3 to 5 days.
Otherwise go for urine pregnancy test at least after 7th day of missing cycle.
Consult your gynecologist for further guidance.
