Would someone please respond?

My girlfriend says that she's 2 weeks late. The puzzling issue is that there has NEVER been a time that i did not use a condom. She has been late before, but no more than a week, and that was thought to be due to stress. There have been no slip-ups, condom pops or malfunctions. She will be getting a home test if it doesnt come by Friday (it is now Wednesday) Could the lateness be due to stress as well? has anybody EVER been 2 weeks late and not pregnant??

most people assume that whatever their cycle is, it will remain that way forever.  That is not the case.  The human body is a mysterious machine that is affected by a wide range of factors - it is entirely possible to be two weeks late (and sometimes more) and not be pregnant.  And not everyone's cyle will remain like clock work for their entire reproductive life.  Its actually quite normal to experience some variation, especially if affected by changes to diet, stress, exercise, illness or hormonal conditions.
That is assuming that you have used the condoms effectively of course......
This is an open forum, and people answer posts if it suits them or they think they can help. some people dont  get any response at all and some may have to wait for a few days or more. There are no guarantees of course, and if you want an urgent more detailed response, you should talk to a health professional.  .

Yes it is possible to miss an entire 4 wks cycle, due to stress or even miss more than one period. I personally was 20 days late one time but still not pregnant. As long as you are definetely 100% sure nothing happened that could cause pregnancy then there shouldn't be anything to worry about, just wait and see, I am sure it will come.
