Continued Missed Period

I posted a thread earlier about having a missed period and unsual discharge.

Anyways, it's been about over 2 1/2 weeks now and I still haven't gotten my period.  I just get the usual discharge, no spots or odd color.  No breast tenderness.  The week before Christmas, I had protected sex with my significant other also.. and I'm not taking any birth control pills either.   I took a pregnancy test yesterday morning and the results came out negative, but I'm still not sure if it's accurate enough?

For the past 2 or 3 days, I've been experiencing some slight cramping, yet no period.  I'm kind of worried about this... does anyone know what's going on with me?

Well, I know there aren't any holes in my b/f's condoms... because the ones we used were the ones I kept in my drawers when we did it.

I've been cramping a LOT lately =\  and still no period... and I can't stop the hunger!

Hopefully... things will get better...  I'm hoping not to see my gyn yet though

the pins made me wonder if its "kids" who work there or customers? the condoms are usually behind the check out counter or right next to the pharmacist.
ugh, can you imagine?

The pregnancy tests are not always accurate.  My daughter's "negative tests results"  Will be 12 years old in February. :-) I'm assuming you used a condom for protection but it is possible it had a defect.  I worked in a drug store for 8 years and you would be surprised at how many people will stick pins in packs of condoms at the store.  They think it is funny.  You should make an appt. with your GYN to have it checked out.  Could it be a tubal pregnancy?

My friend missed her period for three months and she wasn't on birthcontrol and had unprotected sex within that time frame.  Hers was from stress from work and then it became stress from worrying about if she was pregnant or not.  So there are lots of reasons why people miss their periods for a month or more.  But all you can do is wait longer to take a test to see or have a blood test done.

There are lots of reasons why you can miss or get your period off schedual: stress, excersise, dieting, pregnancy, and then there is the "no known cause" thing too... Ask yourself if anything has changed in your life in the last couple weeks and that may be your answer. If you are concerned about being pregnant, see your doc for a blood test that will tell if you are even a teeny tiny bit pregnant.

i think this is just one of those "make a dr. appointment moments". seriously. you had protected sex, which would indicate not pregnant but you are missing a period. plus you took a test!? no one here can say either way but your body is saying something is not right. so.. give a call to your dr. and go in. im sure its something simple.
