Period 1 week late, cramps, and a negative pregnancy test

What happened with you??? Are you pregnant?

I've been having a similar problem however, I'm 16, under a lot of stress, and I've been diagnosed with stress induced anorexia. However I've been eating more and just recently I haven't been able to keep my food down. When I went to the doctor she had me take a urine test. However when I put my cup into the lab drawer, there was another urine cup in there and my suspicions lead me to think she tested the wrong cup. My period is over a week late and I want it to start because I can't handle a child right now and the stress is enough as it is already. I understand the stress may be delaying it but this is the worst it's been and I fear a false negative or that she tested the wrong one. I feel crampy a lot and like I'm starting my period but when I check it's clean.

Hi... I know this is really old, but It's my exact situation to a T. What happened with you? Were you pregnant and if not what was wrong. Thanks so much,Tabitha

This was the first helpful post I read in the forum. I'm 21, 8 days late, 3 negative tests, but after reading this I just checked my cervix and it appears to be very tight. I'll take another test in a week or so.

I'm definitely in the same boat... I'm now 5 days late! 3 negative home tests, but major cramping as if I'm about to come on... I'm going to get a blood test Thursday because besides being late I have NO symptoms... None AT ALL!!!!!!!

Would be nice if you guys give us all updates because it would tell everyone so much more than just the problem. Did anyone find out if they were or were not pregnant or ever figure out what the deal was? For me, I am 10 days late, negative pregnancy test, experiencing nausia, dark nipples, sore breasts, headaches, mild cramping, bloating and feeling pretty sluggish. I will keep in touch on here to let everyone know about updates so this can further help people in the future. :)

i am on the same boat as you , iam five days late i took two pregnancy test two days ago and they came back negative today i went to the pregnancy center for a pregnancy test and it came back negative im still feel mild cramps, lower back pain, and frequent urination but still nada tommorow im supposed to go for a blood test so cross ur fingers .. for the very first time i wish my period or something would happen! it feels horrible !

Just wanted to give you all an update. So, I went 13 days past when I was supposed to have my period and then, boom, huge cramps came and there it was. :( Well, to my surprise, the next month, I was pregnant! I'm not sure what in the world happened, my midwife said sometimes the egg just drops late, just something that happens, but she couldn't find anything that would tell her there was anything wrong going on in my body. I am now about 8-9 weeks pregnant and so far so good. I am not sure if this helps anyone, but this is my story at least.

Hi everyone :) i wanted to post this as a thank you to those people who had already come forward to explain their symptoms as it motivated me to go the hospital and also for people who might be currently worried about their symptoms. I had all the symptoms that have been described by other users (no period, bad abdominal cramping, feeling sick but not being sick, mood swings, bloated) however i had stopped using the contraceptive pill 3 months before i had any of these symptoms as me and my partner were ready to try for a baby. My periods had been very irregular for 2 months stopping then starting again (but i put that down to my cycle adjusting after stopping the pill), until the 3rd month where i didn't have a period at all. Of course my first thought was that i was pregnant so i excitedly went out and bought a pregnancy test; to my disappointment it was negative. I decided to look online to help me find answers then i read one post where a girl had found out she had PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) and it encouraged me to go to the hospital and find out what was wrong once and for all. After a blood test, vaginal exam, scan and smear test i found out i do have PCOS as well as precancerous cells in a lump in my cervix that needs to be removed before it developes further. Although it wasn't good news i was so relieved that it was discovered early. It was my first smear test and if it hadn't been for stopping the contraceptive pill i wouldn't of had the symptoms that promted me to look online and been motivated to go get checked out, i would have continued to ignore getting a smear test and then it could have been to late to treat. So my biggest advice is don't be afraid to get a smear test like i was it's quick and painless! Good luck!

Hey guys! I would appreciate some feedback on my situation... Im 23, and had protected sex 3 weeks ago...my period is now 6 days late and i have low cramping (on my right side)...i don't have any other symptoms besides being very worried and stressed since the beginning of the week when i was supposed to get my period.....I've been stressing soo much that i have barely slept...plus I have a final Uni exam tomorrow. I'm waiting until tuesday (after my exam) to get a pregnancy test with my bf. My bf however seems to be pretty relaxed, he doesn't feel it's pregnancy. What should I do? I've been over thinking this soo much in past three days!

HELLO?! does anyone want to give a REAL answer? Stop posting the same things over and over again!!

I'm 14, I am 7 days late and I'm freaking out!! What's going on, is it okay to be a little late? Help.

-jen- this is probably stress. It is very stressful around exam time, I know because I have been there and done that. If it is not stress take the HPT and see. If you are still worried make an appointment with your dr. or go to a health center that gives free pregnancy tests. Let me know what happens. I hope everything turns out the way you want it too.

I had cramps for a week straight associated with a late period. I can't say why this happened, but I was NOT pregnant and my period came eventually, so it does not necessarily mean a pregnancy. 

Hello everyone, i have been off the pill for 4 months and have been trying for a baby for 4 months. For the first 3 months i have had light bleeding each month and it only last 24 hours which is not like my usual periods, but they have been exactly 28 days apart. I am now a week late for my 4th period but have on and off very mild cramping hardly feel it. However i have taken several pregnancy tests over the whole 4 months an all are negative, its making me feel depressed because we so badly want a baby and im starting to feel something is wrong with me. Im scared to go to the doctors because i feel the tests will come back negative and that they might suggest that i have something wrong with me. Does anyone think there is a chance i might be pregnant due to being a week late and having slight cramping all the time? or could it be something bad? any advice would be helpful xxx
