My period is a month late!!! What are some of the reasons this might be?
okay so...my fiance and I usually use the pull out method during intercourse. we've been using this method for 2 and a half years and havn't gotten pregnant .....but when we did it about 5 weeks ago, he ejaculated in me for the first time and now my period is about a month late. I took a urine pegnancy test at home when I was just seven days late but it was negative. could I be pregnant or could it be stress??? any advice will be greatly appreciated...thanks.

It could be either... you could take another pregnancy test now and see if your pregnant because it would show positive by now.. and also, stress can cause a missed period, having stress hasnt caused me to miss a period but it has happened to my best friend!

It could be stress, defiantly, or change in diet, change in workout, any new meds. These things could affect your period, but it sounds like the most logical cause was the sex, if you haven't changed your workout routine intensely, or started eating a ton less than normal. Tests are more accurate the closer they are taken to the days of the missed period, so you want to retake the test soon, and be ready for a positive just in case. Good luck and maybe you and ur groom soon chat about why your having sex without any protection if your not ready for the consequences. A baby is much more work than pulling out or putting on a condom...

Well, yes you could be pregnant. You need to be on a better form of birth control is you are wanting to prevent an unwanted pregnancy. It could be stress, but a month late is pretty serious. The best way to tell if you are truly pregnant is to take a blood test. Otherwise, try again in a week or so with the urine test. Good luck!

Try testing again. If you're pregnant, the HcG should be stronger now.
Some other things that can cause your period to go missing/late:
Stress
Change in diet
Change in exercise
Disease or infection
Ovarian cysts
Illness (cold, flu, etc)
If you still get a negative HPT, schedule an appointment with your Dr. for a blood test.

it really could be stress, hon. don't get too worked up over it, you could be worrying for nothing.
i'd take the advice of the other ladies, also consider if you gained or lost a lot of weight in a short amount of time (that could also do it).
relax! there's no use of worrying if the verdict isn't set in stone yet! have a DVD night with your fiance or take a long bubble bath.
and during this time (in case you are pregnant), make sure to get your nutrition and take a lot of vitamins, eat right! your body is going through a lot of stress right now (whether you're pregnant or not). it needs the extra boost.
good luck! :)

ok, pulling out is a horrible method...theres still pre ejaculation that it occurs.and its just been pure luck that you havent gotten pregnant!!
if he ejaculated in you and you werent using any birhcontrol at all, its very likely that you could be pregnant.i would call your doctor ASAP and make an appointment. just because it was negative doesnt mean that you arent pregnant. ive know a few people that took several tests that were negative and they were really pregnant. they found out through a blood test that they were.
my advice to you would be next time you have sex is to use protection. condoms arent that expensive....

hey,
You definitely need to test again. As your hormone levels may have no been detected on your pregnancy test at 7 days late.
Since sex has occured its very possible that you are.
Definitely grab another one. If it still shows neg. Then Blood test at the doctors should be done to confirm if yes or no,
God bless x they are 100% accurate
Your most likely further along than you thought. Stress may be the cause. but it usually delays not misses

Take another test during the morning time. If it still comes out negative, I would head to the doctor. Have you been sick, on any medication, stressed out, or exercising more? These things could have a toll on you system. I would go to the doctor to find out what is going on in there. Good luck.

You could be pregnant. It also could be stress but if he ejaculated inside of you, then the chance of you being pregnant is much higher. I would suggest going to your doctors office and taking a test so they can confirm it for you, and you could start prenatal care right away.

When my gf misses her period, its usually due to stress. We always use the pull out method, and yes, ive gotten carried away and forgot to pull out also. But just relax and give it a couple more days, and see what happens.
