my cycle differs every month actually, since i have an irregular one since i first started having menstruation. the longest cycle day i had is 44 days, and the shortest is 29 days. but now, i'm 2 weeks delayed. the last sex we had is last october 22.

So your cycles vary from about 4 to 6 weeks (as opposed to your stated 3 to 4 weeks). So today is 47 days after your last period. That is only 3 days longer than your previous maximum. So why do you say you are two weeks late? That would indicate a cycle length expectation of 33 days. Maybe you are using a period tracker. These usually take an average of previous period cycles to predict the next one. With very irregular periods, they are very unreliable.
You could take a test now, or you could wait until 21 days after your last sex to be certain of an accurate result.

Hi Shepherd,

Hi my name is Stef.. I have period cycle of 28days...

On Aug, my period is 27th Aug and last for normal 7days... Have been have sex intercourse twice a week...
On Sept, my period was delayed for 2 weeks, which suppose my period should due on 24nd Sept, but my period started on 8th Oct instead ... Based on calculation my next period will suppose to be on 4th Nov, but till now I haven't had my period, its been around 11days missed period... Is it possible for me to be pregnant? or only delayed period as per before...

Hi Stef
It could well be that you are pregnant, or it may be your period is just later than expected. It is difficult to tell at this stage. It may be that your previous period was delayed because of stress, medication or illness during that time. It may also be that you had been on contraception which would maintain a 28-day cycle but now you are no longer on it your cycle may take time to settle down. If your period hasn't arrived within the next 4 days, I suggest taking a test. If you are trying to get pregnant, having sex every two days at what might be your most fertile times might be worth considering.

Hi Maria. You haven't given much information, but generally if you have a normal period, it is a strong indication you are not pregnant. But not a guarantee, as a few women have had periods throughout pregnancy. If you want a more informed answer, you will have to give more details:
1. What date did your last two periods start?
2. How long is your cycle usually (typically 28 days)
3. On what dates have you had sex since your last period?
4. How old are you?
5. Where are you from?
I wait to hear back from you.

Hi Aira
I'll try and help, but I need more specific information, as well as some clarification.
Charification:
A. I take it that your last period started Oct 6 and ended Oct 10?
B. If you are delayed 1 week 4 days (11 days) then was your period expected to start Nov 10? That would give you a cycle of 35 days.
C. What do you mean about 'lots of white blood'? Or do you mean white discharge?
Now some other questions.
1. What is the actual length of your cycle (period-start to period start) - typically 28 days?
2. What date did your Sept period start?
3. Are your periods regular?
4. How do you calculate your next period start date?
5. On what dates since Oct 6 have you had sex?
I'll try and get back to you when you reply

Hi Aira.
You haven't given enough information to make an assessment, but you could be pregnant. It might be worth taking a test. If you do want to get pregnant, then keeping track of your periods is a good idea.
You mention bruises. Where exactly are they?

Hi,

Im 2 weeks and 2 days delayed now, still have cramping, but I do Pregnant test last nov. 24 but the result is negative. Is this false result.?Sometimes my bruises is in my knee or legs and its only one. I go for check up yesterday but the OB just gave me a medicine,( DUPBASTON) that's the name of medicine. I hope I'm pregnant but Im really sick and still have a cramping for almost 2 weeks. Thank you so much.

Hi Aira
The test is not likely to be false. Dupbaston is probably the local name for medication that has dydrogesterone as its main ingredient (check the information with the medicine). Dydrogesterone is a synthetic hormone similar to progesterone (the naturally occurring sex hormone). Progesterone is responsible for the development of a healthy womb lining (endometrium) that is necessary for pregnancy. So I expect your OB is giving it to help you get pregnant and to help your body maintain a pregnancy.

Hi Dr.

So I maybe pregnant? But why my Pregnancy Test is negative? my husband and I are worried,maybe im sick or i got pregnant outside the uterus.. etc. Im Taking now folic acid and ferrousulfate. And Im always resting and put my feet on the wall and when i have cramping my husband giving me a hot compress. I experience now Gerd and my cramping is ups and down.

Thank you so much for answering all my email to you. I really appreciate this.

Cheers,

Aira

No, I wasn't suggesting you may be pregnant. The medication is to help you get pregnant (that is when implantation occurs) and then to maintain the pregnancy once pregnant. It is very unlikely that the OB/GYN's test that was negative was false.

If you were pregnant outside your uterus (extra-uterine/ectopic) you would still likely have high hCG levels that would be picked up in a test.

There are different causes of GERD, but has your condition been diagnosed as GERD? If so has the folic acid and ferrous sulfate been prescribed for that? Make sure that your Dr and OB/GYN know you are taking both, and what the dosage is.
