My Period was due October 18th, It's know the 25th. I am a week late and have had 3 Negative Pregnancy Tests. When I get my period usually my symptoms are the same as pregnancy, so it's hard to determine if my period is coming or if I'm pregnant. I have A very normal 28 day cycle, being late really concerns me. Is It Possible I'm pregnant? How long should I wait to take another test? Should I go to the doctors? Me and my boyfriend have had unprotected sex, but he always pulls out. Please help.

If you have had unprotected sex, it is always possible you could be pregnant. However, I would wait a week or so before worrying. I am usually very regular, and once in a while, mine is a week or week and a 1/2 late. It usually happens when I'm really busy or stressed. If you don't get your period in a week, take another test. At that point, call your doctor and see what he/she says. When you use the test, do it the first time you go pee in the morning. The hormone levels are highest at this time and more likely to show up. Just try to stay calm. Take a warm bath, drink some hot tea or cocoa, and sit down with a good book or TV show. That always helps me when I have PMS and or am worried about being late. Hope this helps!
