Late Period! Am I Pregnant ?!

Some Causes of Late Menstruation

Normally, menstruation or menstruation that occurs once a month because of the shedding of the unfertilized uterine wall.

This shedding will be in the form of dirty blood which will later come out of the vagina. That is the normal process of menstruation. Of course, for those of you who are late in your period, there must be something going on with the process of your uterine wall shedding.
