Confirming Your Pregnancy
It is possible you may not be pregnant, even when you’ve missed a period. Stress, hormonal changes, and rapid weight gain or loss can affect your menstrual cycle. You can also be late if your period cycle is irregular and you’re not keeping track.
The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists reports up to 20% of known pregnancies end in a natural miscarriage. Most miscarriages happen early in a pregnancy, sometimes before a woman even realizes she’s pregnant.
If you have miscarried, it’s possible to receive a positive home test result weeks after.
