Two weeks late

Two weeks late

I wrote in not long ago about being late for period. It’s been 15 days now. I’m not stressed, on meds or anywhere near the menopause. The pregnancy test is still negative and I can’t get into the doctor for another 3 weeks (yay rural Australia!). Can it be possible for someone to be pregnant and it not show up on a home pregnancy test?

How old are you? My cycle has changed due to my age 48. I was always 28 days but now it’s sometimes 20 days, sometimes 50 days.

I’m 35 and I have a genetic condition that affects my pituitary gland. I didn’t enter menarche normally and had to have a series of hormone treatments to start my puberty. My endocrinologist said that I will likely not enter menopause without help either. I don’t know if it’s related at all but I don’t know anything right now.

I’d say this is to do with your condition more than pregnancy. A blood test will give you the answers.

Yes apparently it can show neg if too early, or such a faint pos that people miss it, so keep doing them for the next week use different brands, and if you’re wanting to terminate I wouldn’t be waiting another three weeks to get the ball rolling. It’s also possible it’s other things or just late and it’ll come.

I’ll definitely keep testing. If I’m pregnant I don’t want to terminate but thank you for the kind advice

There’s also no harm in taking the pregnancy supplements from now just in case (over the counter from the chemist) as they’re most useful in the very beginning of pregnancy

Have you been trying to get pregnant? Not using protection?

15 days and showing negative so I'd say unlikely you're pregnant but it is possible. Sometimes women do randomly just skip a cycle. Are you trying to get pregnant?
