There is no need to frightened of a home pregnancy test. They are easy to do and can be bought at a local pharmacy. You can buy her the pregnancy test strips yourself from the nearest pharmacy; she only needs to wet the strip with her urine (cup provided in the kit). Then, you both look for a line(s) to show up on the strip. This is the only way to see if she is pregnant or not because you can’t be sure if she had unprotected sex with someone else. If the test is negative, then she is not pregnant and her missed periods could be caused by a hormonally active follicular cyst. She can see a gynecologist regarding this possibility and to follow up with advice about contraceptives that can work for her.
