Hello dear,i understand your concern.In my opinion it can be either due to pregnancy or hormonal imbalance.It can be confirmed by doing a urine pregnancy test a week after missed period as the urine pregnancy test gives accurate results a week after missed period.So relax and wait for the spontaneous onset of period.If no period do a urine pregnancy test.
