Will Home Pregnancy Test Help Me To Determine Accurately?

Sir/Madam, I want to know whether i am pregnant. I had my periods at the correct time when i had had sex 2 weeks before my periods. Then a month and a half later i had sex again on the day when my period was due. It s 7 days since then and i have yet not had my periods. I used protection both the times and it wasn t broken or anything. Is there any chance that i am pregnant? Will home pregnancy test help me to determine accurately?

Hello dear
I understand your concern

You have did sex when period was due, means around the period date.
It is very safe period and again you used protection without failure.
So chance of the pregnancy is nil.
Now your period is delayed by the 7 days.
I would suggest to go for pregnancy test in next 2-3 days.
You can use prega news or I can pregnancy kit.

But I think it will come negative as you have did sex in safe period with protection.
Your period could be delayed due to hormonal imbalance, ovarian dysfunction.
If period will not come then meet the gynecologist to find out the cause.
Period can be induced by the Progesterone pill in absence of the pregnancy.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water, maintain proper pelvic hygiene, and do regualr exercise.
Hope this may help you
