Also i dont know if i should mention i didn't get a period the month of December which is why i freaked out, and tested like the first week of January. I tested negative and got my period a few days letter. I was sooo stressed out and crying all the time the month of December so i knew that may be a reason i didn't get one or it was late. Once i got that neg result i calmed down then boom period arrived. Before December i used to get my cycle around the 23 or 20th of each month.

Also, when you say the ovulation or fertile days may be off because i didn't get my cycle what do you mean by that? Isn't it normal for a girls cycle to be like a day or two off for whatever reason, without effecting her ovulation or fertile days. smh, this is confusing. With the way the human body is based off what your telling me, there's no REAL way to know unless you test.

Can you tell me the exact dates for each month individually?

What upset you in December?
The stress probably caused you to have a late ovulation.

It is your hormones that dictate when you ovulate. Your ovaries release a ripe egg from alternate sides about once a month. For many women it is every 28 days, but the cycle can be regularly several days longer or shorter. Some women are irregular, their cycle varying one or two days either way. Some are very irregular, having no idea when the next period will arrive.
However long the cycle is, the luteal phase (the time from ovulation to the start of your period) is pretty much constant - about a fortnight. Traditionally the cycle is counted from the start of your period, as this is the only obvious event in the cycle. So the first day of your period is Cycle Day 1 (CD1). With a typical 28-day cycle, Ovulation Day (OD) would likely be CD15, and a period starts 14 days later - CD15+14=CD29 (it is actually CD1 of the next cycle). It is the follicular phase (CD1 to OD) that varies. Monitoring your basal temperature (first thing in the morning before you get out of bed) can indicate the likely day you ovulate. Because ovulation is governed by your hormones, various events can affect exactly when you ovulate. Once you do ovulate, the process generally takes care of itself. So if you ovulate CD17, the your period would arrive 14 days after (CD17+14=CD31 = the new CD1). Because sperm can live in a woman's body for 5-6 days, you are considered fertile on OD and the previous 5 days also. So with the typical 28-day cycle, you would be fertile CD10-CD15; with a 30-day cycle. CD12-CD17. A period is the body getting rid of its no-longer-required preparation for pregnancy (as it is not required if you are not pregnant).
So, as you say, the only real way to know is to test. As some periods are missed (no ovulation = no period), or are very late (late OD), I would not rely on a negative test until 3 weeks after last sex. A positive result is nearly always accurate.
I hope this helps.

No. I didn't start monitoring the actual days my period start until about 1 month ago. I just know they always started around the 12th-14th of each month.

My boyfriend at the time and I were having issues. I was stressed and crying all the time trying to wrap my brain around the fact that I was letting myself get hurt all over again. We eventually broke up that month, he was so mean and insensitive about the break-up. With the help of my friends I was calming down around New Years, I believe I got my period like that first week in January.

This Wednesday 5/20/15 would mark 2 weeks since the encouter on May 6th. If I dont get my period by the following Wednesday 5/27/15 should I test? or would that be too early. I'm not having any symptoms. I sleep alot but thats not out of the norm for me because i love sleep.lol. I dont feel tired or anything i just enjoy sleeping. I got headaches the past two days, but i did have a drink those days so that could be why, and my nipples are tender. All of these signs come when i'm about to get my cycle though so they dont really stand out to me. I dont think i would know the difference. I've been told true preg symptoms dont come for a while.

Wed 27th May would be a good time to test if your period has not arrived by then.
It is true that many pregnancy symptoms are similar to pre-menstrual symptoms. Many don't get definite symptoms of pregnancy.
Take care.

You had said "In january was 20th but then february was 23 and march was missed!". That would make Jan-Feb cycle 34 days. 23rd Feb + 34 days = 29th March, so only three more days would take you out of March, but you didn't have one until 16th April 23rd Feb to 16th April = 52 days. It sounds as though you might be quite irregular, so it is good you are monitoring now.
16th April + 34 days = 20th May (Wednesday)

I said I missed December. I didn't miss March or April. I said i got my cycle in January around the 1st week. I said up until December of 2014 my periods were normally at the end of the month. Jan-March is when they started coming at the middle of the month

Yes you did. Sorry. I was looking back at your earlier posts, but picked up someone else's post by mistake.
Nevertheless, Wed 27th May would be a good time to test if your period has not arrived by then.

Hi Guest.
(1) If your period were due 17th, then you would not likely be fertile 14th. With a prior period starting 21 April, that assumes a cycle of 26 days. Is 26 days the usual length of your cycles?
(2) Was 14th May the only time you had sex since 21 April?
(3) Having an abortion can affect the ability to become pregnant again. Implantation might be difficult to occur or sustain. That would be particularly likely if the results of your frequent sex has been followed by some spontaneous abortions (miscarriages).
(4) It is possible you ovulated much later than expected, so 14th became a fertile day, and so you could get pregnant, but you wouldn't know that for at least another 10 days.
(5) Your period might just be late or missed.
