missed period and 3 negative pregnancy tests, Menopause, pregnant or endometriosis

I have missed my period for the first time ever. I am 41 yrs old and have endometriosis.  I usually get some pain before my period and during, but this time I got all the pain and more for over a week with no period.  We didn't use any contraception a day or two before my period.  I have taken three pregnancy tests a week or two ago which have all been negative.  I am now over 2 weeks late.  I have had some clear discharge over the last couple of months on and off which is not normal for me (although it seems to have cleared up now) and i normally have some discomfort when i am ovulating (and at that time i normally have some discharge which I know is normal), but I have had no ovulation pain at all over the last couple of months which is very abnormal for me.  I have been to the doctors and he has examined me but says everything is normal. I also feel a bit nauseous.  Am I pregnant or have I started going through the menopause?Or is it just my endometriosis playing up.

I normally have long cycles, usually 34-36 days.  I've even gone as long as 42 days once.  The last 2 cycles were 36 then 32 days.  This month Im positive that I ovulated on either day 27 or 28.  My husband & I tried on both days.  It's now day 38.  I took a pregnancy test on day 35 which came up negative, but I still haven't started my period.  I'm having all the cramps that I get with my period, just without my period.  So, I'm wondering if it's possible that I am pregnant & it was just too early for the other test to pick up?

I would definitely vote for perimenopause or at least age-related hormonal fluctuation. This can be gauged quite easily via blood test.
