Negative Test No Period
Posted: 11-30-04 21:28pm

Im am 18 and have been on birthcontrol for almost a year. I am a week late on my period but I took 6 pregancy tests and they all came out negative. I have not been taking my pills at the same time every day this month. Could I be pregant or is my cylce messed up because of the pill.

Hi ladies, thank you for your caring answers! I really needed that extra push to call my doctor. I talked to a nurse at my doctors office and she assured me that I am not pregant if I had negative pregancy tests. I may have missed my period because I have been stressed out or because of the pill. She said this happens to everyone on the pill once in awhile and I should not worry. I also talked to a women at "planned parenthood", a clinic near my home. She told me the same thing but to take a test next week to be sure.

As for the birth control. I found out that it is important to take the pill at the same time everyday in order to have predicable periods but if you dont take it at the same time every day it should not alter its effectiveness.

Thanks again
