A missed period one week late can often indicate pregnancy, but it can also result from other factors like stress or hormonal changes.

🩺 What This Could Mean

• A delay of 7 days might mean early pregnancy if your wife has been sexually active without contraception.
• Other common causes include stress, illness, changes in weight, or medication effects.

💊 What You Can Do Next

• Use a home pregnancy test kit like the Prega News Pregnancy Test, which gives results in 5 minutes using a urine sample.
• Test ideally with the first morning urine for best accuracy.
• If the test is positive or periods continue to be delayed, consult a gynecologist for confirmation and further evaluation.

🩺 When to See a Doctor

• If the pregnancy test is positive.
• If menstruation remains absent or irregular without pregnancy.
• If she experiences unusual pain, heavy bleeding, or other concerning symptoms.

Seeing a gynecologist will provide the best guidance tailored to her situation.
