I had protected sex with my partner on 12th June and got my periods on 21st June, which was very light compared to usual and lasted for three days. I took a pregnancy test after a week, which was negative. I took another test after four days, which was also negative. Now in July my period was due on 21st July but I am nine days late. Is there any chance of pregnancy?

If you had protected sex and two pregnancy tests came negative after your light period, pregnancy is unlikely. Stress or hormonal fluctuation can delay periods. Wait another 3 to 5 days and then do a Serum beta hCG Test to confirm. Light flow in June could also be a regular period with lesser bleeding.

My wife is facing some breathing issues since last one month. She is not able to complete her breath or feels short of breath and sometimes she has excessive yawning but cannot complete her yawn. In between for one week she was fine but again the same problem started. She also missed her period last month. Six months back she had a medical abortion. Today she had a blood test but her blood sample seemed to be a little dark in colour instead of bright red. We are waiting for the blood report. Kindly advise what could be the reason for this?

After seven days of a missed period, is the beta HCG test report 100 percent accurate? Is fasting required for a beta HCG test?
