Alright so on August 15th, I had unprotected sex, we didnt use the pull out method nor did he ejaculate in me (that either one of us are aware of), I had just come off my period at the time. I am now almost a month late on my period (it will be a month oct 12th) which does not ever happen. I am never more than a day late, been so since I started when I was 10 almost 11, and am now 20 almost 21. I have taken two pregnancy test, both have come out negative.

I have not been sick, no fever, no nothing, feeling normal...but am deathly afraid of doctors, dont really want to go unless its absolutely needed.

Could I possibly be pregnant?

I took 4 negitive test and I still didn't get my period. then I went to get an ultrasound. she said that I was pregnant. stress can cause it, but home test are SO unreliable. go to the doctor or get an ultrasound, that's the only way you will know for sure.

Ashley26 agony auntupdate....It is now October 21st. A month and and 8 days late. I have since taken another pregnancy test. Still negative. Cannot get in to see a doctor, until the end of November. I've called every OBGYN in the area. All the same. Long waiting list. So until then I will continue to take another pregnancy test periodically until I go to the doctor. Until then, thanks for all the answers. I will update when I know something.

Thanks again guys!

adamskidude agony auntPeople, people! Dont scare the poor girl, its more than 90% likely that its JUST STRESS, all you people screaming at her about doctors is only making it worse, she has said she is scared of doctors and to me thats almost proof that it is stress related.

Drink lots of water, dont drink coke or eat kellogs cereal for a while and just relax, maybe hit a spa?

Ashley26 agony auntThank you to everyone who answered, I think I'm going to wait it out, and see what happens, if I still have not started my period in a few weeks I will take one more test, and then go see a doctor. I'm deathly afraid of them, which is why I have not gone yet.

Anyways thank you thank you!

in the states you can walk in a county health clinic. They will give you a cup to pee in, and they will test the urine. They will tell you if you are or are not pregnant. A nurse does it and its free. Also if the test is negative, make an appointment for family planning. They will do an exam and give you the birthcontrol of your choice at very little, or no cost. Hope this helps.

adamskidude agony auntYou aren't pregnant, This has happened to my girlfriend before.

You're so stressed out about thinking you're pregnant that you're missing your periods.

Too much stress = no periods

just relax and you'll come back on again.

LazyGuy agony auntYou neither pulled out, nor did he come inside... doesn't leave many options does it?

If you been regular so far and now you aren't, then obviously something is going on.

Home kits are notoriously unreliable. So I am afraid that if you really want to know, a trip to a medical proffesional is called for.

Oh, and for a bit of lecturing, if you want to avoid seeing doctors, use condoms, because a pregnancy test by a doctor is nothing compared to an STD check/treatment.

susandrah agony auntto be honest, i think you are not pregnant. it must be because of other factors like stress, worrying about being pregnant or some sort of hormonal imbalance. i skip my periods sometimes especially when am stressed, worried and at times its just a hormonal imbalance. i think you should try to relax and to clear your doubt, just go and see a good gyn. good luck but my bet is that will be just fine

AuntyEm agony auntAs long as you carried out the pregnancy tests correctly then I think two negatives gives you the answer. Going from the point of unprotected sex on 15th August, if you were pregant that would make you about 8 weeks and a hCG would easily be detected in both blood and urine.

I am not sure what country you live in but perhaps you could get a blood test from a pregnancy advisory service, there fore avoiding your doctor. You period being a month late could be caused by the stress of you worrying over this or some other underlying factor. The only way to truly put your mind at rest is to get a blood test or wait for your period to return.
