Hello doctor! I'm 5 days late for my period, I took a pregnancy test with 2 lines, 1 dark and 1 light. During this time, I felt pain in the lower abdomen and often had more pain on the left side. Pain from time to time. The doctor told me, I have a late period and pain in the lower abdomen, is it okay? And how long after my period should I go for an ultrasound to know if the pregnancy has entered the nest? Is the phenomenon like me dangerous? Looking forward to your advice, thank you doctor!

Hello friends, the doctor would like to answer the question: "Is it okay to miss your period and have stomach pain under the shade? ” as follows:
Each person has a different menstrual cycle, so it is difficult to determine how many days late to get pregnant, but usually after fertilization, it takes about 7-10 days to implant , then you can use the test strip
If your period is regular but you are 5 days late, the pregnancy test only shows 1 dark 1 light, it may not be pregnant, but there may still be test results It's not accurate because it depends on the quality of the test strip, how long it is and the date of fertilization, and usually when my period is 1 week late, I can go for an ultrasound to know if the pregnancy has entered the nest.
Even so, if you have a dull lower abdominal pain and often have more pain on the left side, you still need to see a doctor right away because there are many causes of abdominal pain (eg appendicitis ..) and possible Take blood to check beta HCG to see if you are pregnant..
