My period is 7 days late. I took a pregnancy test 3 days ago and it was negative. How can this delay be explained?

It is possible for periods to be late due to factors such as stress. If there is a concern about pregnancy, it is recommended to take a second pregnancy test with the first urine in the morning. If you do not want to become pregnant, it is advisable to resume your birth control immediately after a negative test to reduce the risk of pregnancy next month. It is important to use additional contraception, such as a condom, during the first 7 days of restarting the pill.
