Rather concerned almost 7 months without a period

[7ash7]

Hi there. I was previously on the contraceptive Depo Provera until July of 2008. Before I discontinued use, I would always receive my period the week before I received the shot. 7 months later, here I am still without a cycle. I figured it might take 3 months or so for my body to return back to normal cycles, but I didn’t expect it to take 7+ months. I've taken pregnancy test after pregnancy test and have come up with negatives every time. However, my body feels as if i am pregnant (sore breasts, morning sickness, lower back pain, mood swings, change in appetite, etc.). Two nights before Christmas I went to the E.R. due to abdominal pain that had started in the lower right section of my abdomen, in fear that I may have appendicitis. The doctor seemed concerned, but when the ct scan results came back he said that my appendix wasn't even visible in the scan and I simply had inflammation. At this point the pregnancy symptoms hadn't appeared, so I didn't really think about a possible ectopic pregnancy. However, the doctor did order me a pelvic exam and made a few worried looks and didn't mention it again. The nurse performed a urine pregnancy test before I got the ct scan. What I'm beginning to wonder is if I am currently ectopically pregnant and my hgc level isn’t high enough to detect in a urine test. Would a blood test be more accurate? And if I’m not pregnant, could my friend's pregnancy be giving me sympathy pains? I could really use some help here!

I just want to start by saying I HATE that shot!  I took it 1 time and didn't have a period for 10 months!  I went to 3 dr's an they hao clue.  Then some one told me about VITEX.  You can get it over the counter and its cheap!  I always got mine from GNC.  I took them for 2 weeks and my period started.  Within 3 months I was pregnant!  It works and its safe.  I never had any side effects at all.  I have heard of others that have been through this too an VITEX worked for them too.  It works for some faster than others.  It depends on the person.  But it always works!  Anita
