Girls, my period is 10 days late. I’m really anxious and can’t be sure. I’m thinking about going to the doctor instead of taking a test and doubting its accuracy, but what if I’m pregnant? I don’t know what to do, someone please show me a way.

9I also had a 8-day delay once, it seriously messed with my head. I took the test, but I waited shaking until I did it. Instead of overthinking for nothing, just take the test, or go directly to the gynecologist to be sure ![]()
First, get a reliable urine test from the pharmacy. Use your first morning urine; it gives the most accurate result. If it comes back negative and you’re still suspicious, the best option is to go directly to the doctor. It will be confirmed with a hormonal test in obstetrics.
I think you should have been a bit more careful. If you had unprotected sex, this outcome is not surprising. Instead of being scared, take responsibility and ask about it. Get a test or see a doctor, take action urgently.
I mean, these kinds of delays can be stressful sometimes, but your freaking out this much… I think either someone said something or you’re not completely sure about what’s going on. At some point, just let go of the ‘but’ part and take action, you know? ![]()
A delay of 10 days is considered long. The tests at the pharmacy provide correct results ranging from 97% to 99%, but there is still a possibility of false positives/negatives. A blood test that checks hormone levels yields more accurate results. I recommend you see a gynecologist ![]()
Girls, seeing so much writing has made me snap back to reality, I think. I went to a pharmacy like this, I have the test in my hand but I still don’t have the courage. I decided to do it in the morning. If it still doesn’t work out, I guess I’ll make an appointment with the doctor. Pray for me.
I feel sorry for your situation, but I need to remind you of this: If there is a relationship with the other party, the issue is not just about your fears; they also need to take responsibility. If you’re going to take a test or visit a doctor, you shouldn’t have to bear this burden alone.
I have a question. Was the schedule disrupted even before the 10-day delay? Or did everything usually work on time? Because this is an important detail; it could even be due to stress.
I don’t understand, why are you waiting so long? If there is a delay, you can just do a test and figure it out. You’re both scared and instead of doing what you need to do, you’re postponing it and increasing your stress. Anyway, make sure to write the result that comes out in the morning ![]()
