Ive recently been diagnosed with a chemical pregnany. It has been three weeks since my diagnosis and I still haven't gotten my period is this normal? How long does it usually take to get your period

Often you will see your next period come about the usual time that you would expect it... but for some women it can be off for a few cycles before getting back to the norm.

Just to be ignorant... what IS a chemical pregnancy?

It is a very early miscarriage... when the embryo doesn't take. Many women actually will have one without even knowing about it as it is so early and often any bleeding occurs around the time of the next period anyway. They usually go unnoticed, but with early testing now women are much more aware of when they are first pregnant.

I know you said next period but I never had any bleeding after my diagnoses so I haven't had a period since May 14th

Odds are you will start back up about the time your period would have normally come about if you had not become pregnant. There are exceptions however, so it may be in the next week or so, or it may be a bit longer.
