What Causes Delay In Periods?
Hi, I am trying to conceive for last 2 years . My periods have always been regular but this month my periods are late by 5 days. I did a home pregnancy test but it came negative. I already checked for Thyroid and PCOD but i don t have these problems. What should i do ?

Hello,
False negative pregnancy test results can happen if you are testing too early. So please wait for few more days and do a home pregnancy test with the first-morning urine sample.
If the test is still negative, then follow up with your ObGyn to get blood HCG testing done.
Hope this answers your question
Please let me know if you need further clarification
