I had sex on May 21 and my date was may 22. And periods have always been late. I had my first time sex in April and I my boyfriend always used condom. I had my first home pregnancy test right after one week it was negative. And right after one week I took another test it was negative too. And on the same day I had period and next day that period stopped. So my period was just for a day. And next day I went to clinic had my urine test it was negative. And next day I went to another clinic I had urine test it was negative too. And after one week I had another urine test at clinic it's negative. And I gave my blood sample to have blood test too so now it's been four weeks and my blood test came negative too. I am really scared what's going on. Please help. I beg you people. I only had sexy for 4 times till yet always with condom. Not even a single time without it. Please help what's going on I am only 19 years old.

Those common words 'periods have always been late' really have no meaning. For one thing you are only 19, and for another, we all have variety in our periods, month to month and as we age.
A one day period can mean something or it can mean nothing at all! Generally we assume that it means nothing until we find out otherwise. Most of us have a light or even no period at times.
You went overboard on all those tests so soon, so now you need to keep testing every few days. Use the HPT, home tests that you can get in a drug store.
Now about condoms... you MUST know by now that condoms have a high failure rate? Go back to a clinic and get the pill or patch.

It's been 4 weeks since you had sex, or your period is now 4 weeks late?

From what you posted you tested way too early. You're not even officially pregnant only a week after sex. The sperm has to swim, meet the egg, implant in the egg, then the egg has to travel to the uterus and implant there. That takes time. A pregnancy test won't detect pregnancy until implantation in the uterus occurs. Even then there may not be enough hcg hormone produced to accurately detect pregnancy at that time.

When was the last pregnancy test taken?

If you're 4 weeks late for your period at this time, try another test. Some women don't get a reliable result until well into their second trimester.

Also, condoms are the least reliable form of birth control on the market. There are women on this site, and all over the world, that had sex with 3 different forms of birth control, and still got pregnant. Some more than once.

Any time you have sex, pregnancy is possible, even with protection. So if you're not ready for a baby, or the possibility of one, the only way to ensure you don't become pregnant is to not have sex. Either that or a complete hysterectomy.

My last period was on April 22 and prior to that my period came in feb 20. My periods are late means they never came monthly. I talked to the doctor he said it's hormonal change and when you are sexually active periods become late. The cycle changes of the periods. I don't feel any symptoms like sore breast headache, frequent peeing, vomiting or anything like that. I had 6 urine test even a test before that one day period thing. And I had one blood test too right exactly after 28 days after I did sex. Please suggest. Ask me any questions

All my test came negative and my doctor said I am not pregnant because he asked me about the symptoms and stuff. Honestly I feel fine I don't feel any change I'm my body. My eating habit and everything is same .

Your doctor based a possible pregnancy on symptoms and "stuff"?

Where did he/she go to school, Kelloggs cereal medical company?

Symptoms mean nothing. Many women have no pregnancy symptoms throughout their entire pregnancy. A real doctor should know that.

Wait and see. That's all you can do. That's all anyone could do. We can't tell you what's going on. Only your body can, when it's ready. Pregnancy can only be determined by urine, blood, ultrasound, or giving birth. None of those are things we can accomplish online.

So you wait, see, test. That's really the only option. I wish there were more we could do, but there really isn't. :(

It sounds as though you just have irregular cycles... some women do. It would be very unlikely for a blood test not to pick up a pregnancy when you had one done. If you skip another month, see your doctor again. He will likely do another blood test or ultrasound to check for pregnancy, and also to try and determine a possible cause for irregular cycles if not pregnant.

The doctor said 'when you are sexually active, periods are late?'
Either you misunderstood (which given what you say, sounds likely) or it's time to find another doctor.

I'm with joypulv... you either misunderstood what the doctor said... or that doctor is very poorly educated. My guess is you misunderstood them.

I'm 53, been married for 23 years... and sexually active myself since I was 16, no female I have ever known was late just because she was sexualy active.

You have likely been testing way too soon, which would result in negative test results. I'd wait at least another 2 weeks before trying tests again....another 3 weeks would be even better.

And relying on the so called pregnancy symptoms.....that is about as reliable as reading chicken entrails. As they usually are a result of something else going on a vast majority of the time.

Condoms have an effective rate when WHEN USED CORRECTLY of 83%, but few people new at it use them correctly. Because pregnancy is always a possibility when you have sex... be prepared for the possibility of having a child....or wait until you really are ready to have one.

My periods just started Saturday and today is my fourth day of that. Now what do you think it's going ?

It means being pregnant is now very unlikely. Your periods are highly irregular, and if you speak with your gynecologist there might be options.

There are a number of possibilities... one being daily birth control pills that works to regulate some women's periods. They can discuss options with you.

So you mean I am not pregnant for sure ? And even my stomach was hurting as always during periods since the first three days. So I should be tension free that I am not pregnant right

Everything else can be explained away. As you well know... Some periods can be worse than others... just as some women are more consistent than others as to when they have theirs. There is one absolute. No woman will always have periods the same every month nor will they always be on time. Beyond that there might be significant variations month to month and woman to woman.

There is such a thing as a false period... but its not common... what you can do to put your mind at reast, is in a few more weeks... take a home pregnancy test, right after you wake up in the morning, the first time you pee that morning, Its still too soon to test and have a relaible result based on when you last had sex.

But honestly... I believe the chances of being pregnant are very, very small at this point. Small enough you shouldn't really need to stress about it.

Thanks dear but I last time I had sex on May 21 after that I didn't even thought about it. And I hope and I pray I am not pregnant.

If you're having your period, you're not pregnant. Once you're pregnant your period stops.

Some women do experience bleeding throughout their pregnancy and mistake it for a period. That's why we can't say for certain that you're not pregnant, because we can't say for certain that this is your period.

But from what you wrote, it sounds like an off period, which would mean you're not pregnant.

I just wish I am not pregnant. And what would be the best time to take urine test or any test whih you suggest to make sure about it ?

Two weeks after your period is late. Since you're bleeding now, and it seems to be a period, wait until two weeks after you stop bleeding, then take a urine test using first morning urine, as I mentioned in my first post.

The only way to 100% avoid pregnancy is by not having sex, or having a full hysterectomy. So, even if you're using protection, even if you're using 3 or more forms, if you're having sex, pregnancy is possible. Sounds like you're very stressed about a possible pregnancy. Since you're obviously too young, and not in medical need of a hysterectomy, perhaps it's time to avoid sex so you can avoid a pregnancy until you're ready for one.

Ya I have decided not to have sex. In nutshell my story is my last to last period happened on feb 20 then they came in April 20 something. And then I had sex on May 21 my boyfriend used condom. And after each week I took urine test and outside at a clinic too for 4 weeks and took 3 urine test at home right at the first pee in the morning. And 3 test I did at clinic. All came negative. 20 days after sex I had one day bleeding or period I don't know what to say about it and I took a test the same morning too before and that was negative too. Exactly 29 day after sex I did blood test it was negative too. And after April 20 my period came on 21 June ( last Saturday) . And now period bleeding is the same as it was on my last period on April 20. Please a last answer I am really concerned you are doing a big help for me

I know when you tested, when you had sex, and you tested too soon every time. You need to learn how pregnancy works. Please read my first post to you again. Do some research on pregnancy, how it works.

Here's a video that may help a bit.

http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CB4QtwIwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Do3u OILAW6Lw&ei=lAmqU5_WL4PgoATMpIDwBg&usg=AFQjCNES0SNZY2dX8ujVPBKpD8TBGWDSZA&sig2=c7i3OjvECH6TTUPApGOW5Q

As I said before, it sounds like you are having your period, which would mean you aren't pregnant, but we can't tell you if it's your period or if it's just bleeding. We can't tell you if you're pregnant either. That's beyond our power online.

You had a negative blood test 29 days after having had sex... you have a history of irregular cycles... a condom was used during sex (while not 100% effective it certainly lowers the odds)... and now you are having a period. It would be extremely unlikely that you are pregnant.

You are wise to avoid sex until a time when a possible pregnancy would not cause so much worry.
