Is it possible to be pregnant if my period is delayed but I have no chest pain?
Chest discomfort is not present and menstrual delay may indicate pregnancy, but it could also mean no pregnancy. A single symptom cannot determine whether someone is pregnant; a pregnancy test strip or blood HCG test is needed for confirmation.
1. Possible
If menstruation is delayed without chest pain and there has been unprotected sexual intercourse, pregnancy is very likely. After conception, menstruation stops. However, in early pregnancy, hormonal levels may not have risen significantly yet, so noticeable breast tenderness might not be present.
2. May Not Be Pregnancy
Absence of chest pain with delayed menstruation could also result from irregular lifestyle, staying up late, stress, or other factors causing endocrine disorders. Hormonal imbalances can lead to delayed periods.
Based solely on symptoms such as delayed menstruation and lack of chest pain, it is impossible to confirm pregnancy. It is recommended to promptly use a urine pregnancy test strip or undergo a blood HCG test for accurate diagnosis. Also, ensure adequate rest and avoid stress and fatigue.
