Hello. I am 8 days late for af and i have taken a few hpt but they came back negative, however i am having some light cramping, tender breast, backache, headache and tiredness. My question is should i wait a while longer before taking another test or should i make an appointment to have blood work done? If someone could give me any insight i would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

Hello,
I have had friends with similar scares, even ones who are always regular. Late periods occur for many many reasons. It can be stress, change in medication, change in diet or excercize, a hormone imbalance and a multitude of other things. Don't freak out yet, set a date in a week or two when you can begin to worry. Sometimes women skip their period from a month all together and get it again the next month. I know it's happened to me a few times. I hope this helps and I hope everything goes well for you.
