Hi,
I am aayesha, I had my last periods on 24/09/2014 but till today i.e. 7/11/2014 I havent got my periods. Am I pregnant? I dont want to be now. We always have intercourse with protection (condom). I am having some back pain and I feel like my periods is about to come but it doesnt :(. I have taken home pregnancy test also on 5/11/2014 but it came negative. What should I do? When should I take the next test to be fully sure? I play badminton regularly. I have been under some stress lately.
my periods are late by 13 days. I am 23 yeras old.

Hello Aasyesha,

You are over a month late in getting your period. Stress and extreme exercising can cause a delay. But, I think you need to be seen by either your primary care physician or your gynecologist.

Hello Anonymous,

If your period is late by 15 days and the home pregnancy tests all were negative, you need to consult your gynecologist or primary care physician.

A blood pregnancy test, which is more accurate than a urine test, may be necessary. Blood tests to check your hormone levels might be necessary as well.

Hello Anonymous,

Thank you for your question. Have you had unprotected sex since your last period? If so, pregnancy might be the reason your period for October is two weeks late. Take a home pregnancy test now.

If you have not been sexually active since your last period, high stress levels, illness, excessive exercising, and significant changes in weight are all possible causes.

Maryann

Hi my name is Crystal, I'm 23 years old and I am 16 days late. I have had lower back pain and I have had a weird sharp pain on and off in my right nipple. I have been feeling like I'm going to start my period for about 10-12 days now but nothing not even spotting. I have taken 2 pregnancy tests one on Oct 3 and one today Oct 6 but both were negative... I'm very confused. I have never been this late. Ever.

Hello Crystal,

Thank you for your question. It is quite possible that high stress levels could be the reason for a late period. Have you been under a lot of stress lately?

A recent illness, excessive exercising, and even excessive changes in weight, either gaining or losing a lot of weight, cause a delay in the start of a period.

Try to relax. If you do not get a period this month, and next month, consult your primary care physician or gynecologist.

Maryann

Hello Anonymous,

I can appreciate your confusion. Thankfully, you have a scheduled appointment within the next few days. Mention your symptoms to your obstetrician. Write down any questions and bring the list with you. Hopefully, all your concerns will be relieved.
