Hi, I am worried about a possible pregnancy and wondering if anyone could possibly help me out because I do not have health insurance so I want to have an idea that I very well might be pregnant before spending a lot of money to visit the doctor for no reason.
I have researched many sites but most don't help because I do not have an average cycle. My menstrual cycle is an average of 12 days whereas most women have an average cycle of 28 days. I use a period tracker on my Android phone which is very accurate because of my user inputted data. The most I've ever been late on a period is 1 day or 2 which is normal for me because I track all of my information and symptoms for every period in my app that way when I'm one or two days late I don't freak out I always know my period will come. The only issue is that this cycle my period is 10 days late. Many people say that stressing over a period this late can cause a period to continue to be late but I have been pretty calm about the situation (until I test positive that is).
My Boyfriend and I currently have protected sex but we didn't use a condom only two times out of many cases. My last normal period started October 29th and lasted until late night on November 2nd which is very normal as my periods last an average 4-6 days. I had unprotected sex November 4th and 5th with him and wasn't too worried about it considering I've never been preaware (A very naïve decision I am aware). My next period was due November 10th after that and as normal sometimes was barely 3 days late which I thought to be a period except it was extremely light and a light pinkish brown color for a few hours on and off for about 2 days. I figured this was my period it just didn't come like normal until when I was due for my next period on November 23rd and it did not come at all even though I experienced the symptoms of bloating, tender breasts, and other pms symptoms which made me believe my period was on its way. After the fifth day of being late I noticed that something must have been wrong considering my pms symptoms worsened and have not let up at all and have been accompanied with many more symptoms.
I have experienced occasional nausea as well as extremely sore and heavy breasts which is becoming unbearable. They look amazing but even while showering I want to cry when I barely touch them. Also I have been experiencing mild backaches, food cravings and aversions, headaches, and extreme fatigue. I picked up this symptom of extreme exhaustion about 2 weeks ago that hasn't let up at all. Another symptom which I didn't know was a symptom until today is I have been having odorless discharge every day for the past week as well which has been different than ovulation discharge. It has been much thicker than ovulation discharge but like it its also white. I took a pregnancy test 2 weeks ago which was negative and again today but neither times were my first morning urine. Which reminds me the urge to urinate has become much more than normal. I am not sure what to think at this point but some stories and advice is much needed here as I am a 19 year old and do not know much about any of this. I would really appreciate your advice and help :) If I keep getting negative results and symptoms persist without my period I will head to the doctor. Thank you :)
