I am 4 days late for my period and took a pregnancy test on the first day of my period, which was negative. I have an IUD (Mirena) inserted since December 2022 and am using modafinil and lamotrigine. How can I tell if I'm pregnant or if my period is delayed due to other reasons?

Does an increase in discharge that looks like egg whites mean that you are having your LH surge or that an egg has been released? I experienced increased cervical mucus that looked like egg whites, bloating, abdominal pressure, and pain on one side on Tuesday 6/23, followed by less mucus and more pain on Wednesday. I had unprotected sex on Thursday 6/25. Could I be pregnant, especially since I am due for my period tomorrow but have no normal PMS symptoms and have had nausea, a headache, and more cervical mucus today?

I am 10 days post-op from an open myomectomy and have started bleeding heavily. I suspect it's my period, but the blood flow is excessive. I have no fever or vomiting, and only slight pain. Should I be worried, and what could be the cause?
