hi, i'm 20 years old and have been seeing this boy for a few months now. i'm still a virgin so we've never actually had sex but we do fool around with our clothes off. i'm not on birth control because i'm not ready to start having sex so there was no actual protection. he came but no where near my vagina and i would never let him touch his penis against my vagina because he doesn't wear a condom (because he knows i'm not ready for sex) he did finger me, i'm not sure if he had precum on his fingers or not, i know for sure he's never fingered me after he came though. my period is pretty regular however whenever i get stressed it gets out of whack. i just recently moved back to college, my eating habits have changed some and my sleep schedule is a little off. my period was due last saturday the 1st (i track it on kotex.com sometimes it's a few days off) but now it's almost a week late and i'm starting to worry. well actually i've been worrying ever since it didnt show up last week. i have terrible anxiety and panic attacks. i overreact and over think things to the point where i make myself physically sick. i've had bad heartburn and stomach aches because of the stress from not getting my period. i'm a sophomore in college and cannot have a baby right now. especially if i didn't even have sex. and i'm a pretty careful person when it comes to these things i was just a little more careless this last time. can anyone give me some advice anything to help ease my worries?? i'm making myself sick over this. i haven't even had any of my normal pms symptoms either..headaches, cramps, bloating...please help!

Hi there,
Maybe someone could give me advice. I'm 19 years old and have been with my boyfriend for six years. We have always been protected with a condom and have always been cautious. My last period was on July 21th and it is now September 1st making my period two weeks late. I took a HPT last night which was negative I used to be pretty regular but last fall I started taking Zoloft for depression and now my period has ranged from being on time to 12 days late. I also just started my sophomore year of college last week which may have added some stress The only symptoms I have been having lately is excessive discharge last week, almost as if I had been ovulating as well as a little pressure down there.(Pressure feels like a slight UTI but it could be something else.) I guess what my question is if someone has has symptoms similar to these and if I should be worried about being pregnant. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello Anonymous,

My guess is that traveling and high stress levels are the reasons why your period is late.

Hi there,
My boyfriend is overseas, I went to visit him in June / July. We had some oral sex and took showers together etc. We were very careful, had no penetration, but I am not sure if some of his sperm might have come in contact with me. My periods are usually regular with a 33 day cycle. In June (started the 18th) it was 28 days. In July I came back home and then went to another city for work. Was very cold there, my period was different from normal. It started with spotting a few days before and then 29 July I had heavy dark blood when going to the toilet but only one day of light bleeding on the pad. Usually I have very heavy bleeding the first day.
My period for August should have started the 17th but it hasn't yet. I've been having some pms symptoms from the 17th and today my breasts are tender and swollen. I did two home pregnancy tests, one a few days after my July weird period and one now and both were negative. I've had a lot of stress this month. I am sure my missed period is from that, but I've read on some websites that some women say they had their first period after conceiving and then started skipping from the second. Just want to hear your opinion.
Thanks!

Hi i have a question about my cycle..now i know this might sound strange but i believe it to be true. I just had a baby 3.5 months ago and since i have had clockwork periods except one. Our daughter was born may 1 and i bled for 3 weeks. so the rough date is about 21st that i stopped ending my normal 28 day cycle around 26th May. I went to my 6 week checkup on the 12th jun and said i believe i had ovulated a few days before (9th June) and the doc said its not likely just after having a baby - but said if i was sure wait two weeks and i should get them. Well 2 weeks later on the 23rd jun i got them. My next ovulate day would have been 7th july and period date the 21st but due to my husband having to go to hospital and i was under stress they were 5 days late arriving on the 26th july and finshed on the 31st july. according to my normal cycle i was due to ovulate on the 4th aug and get the next lot on the 18th. I started the pill on the 31st july and being stupid had unprotected sex on the 4th thinking i was covered realising afterwards i wasn't. I kept taking the pill but 6 days later i had implantaion symptoms that i usually experience as with my last baby. i was on the pill 9 days in total then stopped 3 days ago i have had withdrawl bleeding today and seems to be slowing/stopping so i dont feel it will last much longer. my q is whats the likely chance of me being pregnant since they are normally like clockwork and was off by 5 days..if that event was the only reason i was late would the next one come early but still on time or be pushed forward. TIA

Hello Anonymous,
It sounds like high stress levels are causing havoc with your menstrual cycle.

In June, you had a lighter and shorter period. You are not pregnant.
When you are pregnant, you do not have vaginal bleeding that lasts for three to four days and still sustain the pregnancy.

When you are stressed, your brain's sympathetic nerves signal your adrenal glands release two hormones, adrenaline and cortisol. Persistently high levels of these stress hormone can negatively affect your health. Stress can lengthen or shorten your menstrual cycle, stop it altogether or make your periods more painful.

I hope this helps.

I'm freaking out I could be pregnant. I was fooling around with my boyfriend in may, he didn't go in me or ejaculate at all, I know that isn't a sure thing there was no sperm. In June i had light bleeding, that lasted 3-4 days. It was very unusal. But thought it was my period but now I'm 15 days late and scared out of my mind I'm pregnant! I get lightheaded easy and have back pains and boobs recently are slightly sore but not growing like usual before m period.
Need help!!
