A month without birth control and sex..yet missed period

As you might know, your stress level; your physical condition; your activity level and definitely recent use of the pill would all affect the regularity of your periods. Your missing period seems to be within the normal realm to me. However, are you sure your didn't get pregnant in February? There are cases of women who have periods during the first couple of months of pregnancy. Was your test taken at a doctor's office? That test would be more reliable than a home test. Also, was your pregnancy test taken too early? Get to a doctor so that you can know what you're actually dealing with. The stress is not good. Get the facts, so that you can move forward. Good Luck !

I agree with dsdesk, stress can play a role in missed periods (menses) and it is definately crucial to have this checked out by the experts. Some women are more sensitive to stress than others and it can affect your bodily systems. Have you ever missed periods in the past due to stress? I remember always having a period during those final exams and vacation time - so stress didn't play a huge factor with me.

I recommend getting this checked out right away, three weeks is a significant amount of time to be late from your period. This will eliminate that added stress in your life from not knowing. Good luck!
