    You'll have to see what the blood test shows. Could be you are just going to skip this month, or your period may end up being quite late. Sometimes a positive result doesn't show up for several weeks with a urine test. Fingers crossed you get a positive back!

    Are you normally quite regular with your periods or have they been irregular before? Was the blood test taken one that just gave a positive or negative result or an actual level of hcg? Other then no period, have you had anything else that may be a pregnancy symptom?
    If this coming period still doesn't show, check with your doctor again. They may decide to do a quantitative blood test which will check for hcg (pregnancy hormone) and give an actual number. If pregnancy is still not detected they may decide to check some other possible reasons, may suggest you go on something like Provera to try and get your cycles going again, or they may say just wait and see for another month. Depends on what you and your doctor are comfortable with.

    I only had irregular period sept last yr because I was pregnant but lost it but since then they been regular and on time, just for possitive ne negative the blood test was. Well no period and tiredness, weein a lot, belly pain/crampin, nipples and boobs sore and sensitive, and I'm puttin on weight I'm bloated.

    What is provera

    I'd ask for a quantitative blood test to be done, just to be sure. Provera is a progestin that comes from progesterone and it is a fairly common method used when periods are irregular or very sporadic. Progesterone is one of the hormones associated with reproduction and one of its roles is to maintain the lining of the uterus in preparation for a pregnancy, if pregnancy doesn't happen, progesterone levels drop and a period occurs. For some women who have irregular cycles, Provera can help build the lining, and then when you stop taking it, usually a period will occur.
    Some women prefer to use natural progesterone for the same purpose. However, before using any option, your doctor should determine if that is even an issue and whether it's use would be of any benefit to you.

    You might be stressed. Especially since your trying to get pregnant and this can cause a missed period too. When I tried to get pregnant, I told any sign as being pregnant and it was mostly in my head because I took all the tests you took, including the one mention by DoulcaLC, and it was all negative. I relaxed and stopped thinking about becoming pregnant and a few months later I had a missed period, but I didn't get my hopes high, and waited 2 weeks before taking a test and it was positive. So the only advice I can add is to relax.

    Hi

    I'm not stressed at al though that's the thing, I'm relex as ever. I'm not going to think I'm pregnant just the doctors don't know wots up with me and I've put on weight for no reason. But I ill just relax and not think about it , unless I miss another period

    Thanks

    I think maybe since you've been trying, and hopping for a kid, you're body is showing signs of being pregnant and maybe you're just having an irregular flow
    Because I've had all of that happen to me and I took a bunch of tests to see if I was pregnant
    But they came out negative
    But um wait another couple of days to see if you're period comes, if not then go back to the doctors
