possible pregnancy

Hi, i am 26 yrs old. My last period was on october 11 and lasted dor the regular 5 dsys. It is now december 1st and i havent gotten my period yet. In november i spotted like 6 times different times. I thought each time that it was my period but nothing came on the pad or panty liner, only when i wipe it came on the tissue. Could that be a possibilty that i am pregnant? Fyi-my period cycle is 35 days...

Hi!
If you were my patient I would recommend doing a pregnancy test, If you ARE pregnant, you will need to contact your doctor right away.  I suspect that your test will be negative (I am often wrong, but I need to let you know what to do IF... )IF pregnancy test is negative, I would probably check some blood work such as FSH, TSH and prolactin level.  A 35 day cycle is not considered to fall within the normal range (21-31 days) and may be a sign of polycystic ovary syndrome. I would then prescribe some progesterone to bring on your period.
Good luck!

My last  was Oct 10th. I didn't spot in November but I'm 8 weeks pregnant. Take a test to ease your mind. You can spot during implantation and done people spot during pregnancy. Good luck!

Help!
Well my periods are normal & usually on time, but on September 20 2012 I had a very unusual period it was extremely light & it lasted for 2-4 days. Didn't worry too much but then in October my period was 6  days late (26-28) & also didn't last long nor was it heavy... in November I had no period no signs nothing. It's now December 7, 2012 & im starting to think im pregnate. Which will be a blessing seeing me & my husband been trying for 2me yrs. So im 17 days late, I've been experiencing a queasy annoyance, moodiness (snappy, crying spells)  headaches, low back pain, fatigue (but sorta trouble falling asleep) , a low abdominal discomfort mainly on my left side it comes & goes. Sorta feels like a pulled muscle. I've been making a few runs to the bathroom aswell. I've took one test about a week ago & it turned up negative,  but I know I gotta be pregnate do to a lack of a period (or what seems to be) Back in 2005 when I became pregnate with my son, I don't find out I was pregnant with him til I was 8+ wks. Should I wait it out, take more tests, or make a doc appointment asap...? Be excited or not???
