missing menses
Posted: 04-02-08 19:03pm

I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on the 26th of January. My cycles are usually regular (between 28-30 days), so I expected my period to arrive some time around January 30th. It didn't. I got some very light spotting - the kind that usually warns you that you're about to start - around February 14th, and that lasted three to five days. I assumed that this was my period, though I usually have quite a heavy flow. I have not had a period since then, and I haven't had any noticeable signs of ovulation either. I've taken several pregnancy tests - one right after my missed period, two in the week following my missed period, and a couple tests in March. All have come up negative. Could I be pregnant and just not showing the signs, or could there be a problem with my system?

Addition: I forgot to add that I had surgery in mid-March to remove my tonsils - could that have anything to do with all this?

That was back in February. We're in April now.
Precnancy tests can be false negatives too, and if you have not gotten a period yet, there could be something wrong. Go to the doctor and tell them when your last period was, and also ask for a blood test to see if your pregnant or not, and tell them you've taken quite a few tests as well and all came back negative.
The medication given after your surgery could affect your period..im not 100% sure, you should let your doctor know about that too.
