Q. #AskTheExpert hello doc, I have missed my periods by over 15 days. I never missed periods or weren't late even when I had endometriosis ovarian cyst of 10×8×9 cm (removed in March 2022). I tested few days back, but pregnancy was negative. I slept only for 3 hours and had frequent urination on test morning. Can this affect the pregnancy test? What should I do now: retest pregnancy or test for cyst?
