My period is 7 weeks late. I took a HPT July 4th and it was negative and I had a test done at my doctors office on July 9th and it was negative. I'm always tired and I'm going to the restroom a lot lately. I'm not stressed out and my cycle has never been this late. I've gained a lot of weight and my breast seem as if they have gotten bigger. Is there a chance that the test were wrong? Or is there something else going on with me?

My period is 7 weeks late. I took a HPT July 4ht and a test at my doctors office July 9th and both were negative. I have never been late on my cycle. I'm always tired now. I've gained alot of weight in the past 3 weeks, and breast seem as if they have gotten bigger. My doctor said that I may be under a lot of stress, but I'm not. My doctor told me to wait until July 20 ( I will be 2 months late then) and If I haven't started then, he's gonna give me apill to make me start my period. What is wrong with me?

in my opinion HPTs are useless, a few months ago i took two, both negative (different brands also) then a week later i had a miscarriage at 9weeks, now "feel" preg again and still have neg tests!!!

just took another test this am neg. still no per very sore breasts tired lower back ache feels like I think per is coming but nothing and these neg results are killing me how long before your body can produce enough hormone for the results to be pos???


Morgan - July 9th, 2005 1:30 PM

Linda, "generally" you're body will produce enough hormones for a positive result at or around the time of you missed period, about 2 weeks after to ovulate. Although, all women are different. The problem with negative results and pregnancy symptoms is that there is a chance with an ectpic pregnancy. It's VERY dangerous to have an ectopic pregnancy (where the fertaized egg has implanted in your tube). This can cause you to lose that tube as well as the pregnancy if it goes un-operated on. If you period is late and you keep getting negative results, you really need to ask your doctor about an ultrasound to rule out an ectopic pregnancy. The chance of one is small, but they are very dangerous, if you do have one and it goes unchecked it can potentially cause fatal results. If after 1 month, you're period still hasn't come, it is VERY important that you have an ultrasound. If your doctor refuses, go to the ER, they are more likely to do it. Also, a pregnancy resource center is another place that can help. I am in Portland/Vancouer area of Washington and Oregon and there is a place that does free pregnancy tests and ultrasounds as well as a few other thing. Good luck. And again, for anyone asking advice on this site: Please do not take any information you get here as medical advice.

Thank Gof for you ladies! I'm now nearly two weeks late for my period and have had three (3) negative hpts! I was scared... but now I know I'm one in very many women experiencing the same thing. Clear discharge, slightly crampy, my boobs are now getting just a bit tender and I had pms lower back pains last week, but nothing! I will see a Doctor this week. I'm so happy to know that I'm not crazy! xxx

Eva - July 13th, 2005 11:10 PM

i am 4 days late on getting my period. the last time i had it, it was really light and didn't last the full time it should have. i took 2 hpt's and one came back negative but the other one came back positive. so i went to the doctor and they did a blood test and it was negative. i have been getting some symptoms...feeling sick, tired, back pains, and a white odorless discharge that i have never had before. i dunno if i am not prego than what is it? any suggestions?


Candice - July 14th, 2005 7:23 AM

My boyfriend and i have been trying to concieve a baby for the past 5 months with no luck. But now i have not had my period since May, all pregnancy tests came back negative but i am always so irregular i never know when i should take a test. I have never been this late though and have calculated that if i have concieved, i would be roughly 8 weeks pregnant. does anybody know if this would be too early to take a test?


jj - July 14th, 2005 7:19 PM

i haven't had my period since last month,have all the signs too,but a neg test today.so i also am wondering


Eva - July 14th, 2005 7:37 PM

i went to the doc today and again the test was negative. the doc said if i dont get my period within the next few weeks to go in and repeat the test...hopefully something comes. i still feel sick and i have been getting cramps like i am going to get my period but nothing comes, thats been going on for about 2 weeks. i am confused.....


KT for Eva - July 15th, 2005 9:48 AM

I was on here just a few days ago worrying also. My period came this morning... two weeks late! I was also filled with anxiety, stress, negative hpt results, 3 in total.. and feeling all the "symptoms" of being pregnant. I want children but new this just wasn't a good place in my life to have them. I finally decided to tell myself that after three negative hpts, I'm not pregnant. I continued on as if everything was fine and suddenly, days later my period shows up! What I would suggest to women going through this is to relax your mind, appreciate the effects of stress and axiety...it's incredible what that can do to your body. I'm full of cramps today but I'm relieved and I will conduct my life in a better way, virtually stress free if I can help it. Women have enough to deal with monthly, we all deserve to pamper ourselves and surround ourselves with positive people and situations. When things get bad, and they will, it gets easier to handle. Try relaxing and think of other things, get busy with the other parts of your life and see what happens in a week. Good Luck! KT


Eva for KT - July 15th, 2005 7:57 PM

thanks and i will do that. hopefully it comes and if not than i will go from there. i will keep you posted. take care as well!


Cara - July 18th, 2005 12:36 AM

Hey. I, as well, have missed my period, and am 14 days late from the time I should of received it. I am 19 years old and have had my period for 5 years. It has always been pretty regular up until now. Pregnancy is totally out of the question because I have never had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend. Does anyone have any ideas of what the problem could be? Thank you.
