Never heard of iron tablets delaying period. Someone might be able to help. Right sometimes ppl get a positive ovulation before period aswel as ovulation time also positive ovulation test could mean pregnant and that spotting could be implantation. If I was you I'd do a hpt and see what the situation Is maybe wait till tomorrow with first morning urine 💗🤗😘 good luck xx

I had the same problem delayed period when i had pregnacare , ovulation itself delayed that cycle. Asked Google , and so many girls complained about the pregnacare . stopped and then got my period in 3 or 4 days..

I think Iron tablets cant delay period, as I had few years ago...Just saw in google and some girls asked the same question .. will wait and see...

😅😅Reply queen 👑 I'll take that 😅. Bless you. I didn't know pregnacare did that. I don't use them I use other ones.

I think first morning would be better give you a more definate, answer and your a little stress head. So be best to have a definate answer. I wish you all the best my lovely. Try not to stress and keep me updated.💗🤗😘

P's your not stupid hun your just in a, dilemma and don't want to see a negative result xx
