Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

If you've engaged in protected sex only, then pregnancy is not an issue. Plus your home pregnancy test results were negative. Is your menstrual cycle regular (like clockwork) or does it behave differently sometimes? Your age could be a factor if you are now starting to experience irregular menstrual cycle.

You should schedule an appointment with your doctor to confirm the negative pregnancy results and discuss any other causes.

Here is a resource for you:

I hope this helps,

Be well,
