I need a woman's advice.. or a doctor.?!


Question: I need a woman's advice.. or a doctor..?
Okay I started my period on Monday August 18th and ended on Saturday August 23rd. That was my last period. I took a pregnancy test yesterday & it was negative. And I have had a yeast infection for about 3 days(I don't know if that affects it)

When somebody misses their period they automatically assume pregnancy & I was the same way. So when the pregnancy test said negative I was baffled.

Does anyone know of any OTHER reasons why I wouldn't have started my period already & has this ever happened to anyone else.?

I know this is something I should probably ask a doctor but they cost money & I have no insurance, so I can't just hop up and go to the doctor any time.

All answers will be appreciated!
Thanks!Health Question & Answer


Answers:
There can be many reasons that you missed your period. Although pregnancy is the main cause of a missed period, there could be another reason. To see a full list compiled by medical professionals see the website I posted in the sources section.

A negative pregnancy test probably means that you are not pregnant, but they can be wrong. Keep on taking them, and use a few different brands. If your period does not come next month, you can go to a free clinic (they are at most hospitals) in your area.

I WOULD FIND A WOMENS CLINIC THAT IS FREE OR A SMALL FEE AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. MY SISTER WAS PREGNANT BEFORE AND HER PREGNACY TEST SHOWED NEGATIVE THE ONLY WAY TO ACTUALLY KNOW IS WAIT TILL YOU MISS YOUR PERIOD AGAIN OR GET A BLOOD TEST TO SHOW IF YOU ARE PREGNANT.Health Question & Answer

I had a home pregnancy test be negative when I was actually pregnant. Wait a week or two and then go to a clinic like Planned Parenthood for a pregnancy test. If it turns up positive, they will give you all your options.Health Question & Answer

stress can cause periods to come laterHealth Question & Answer

It's not unusual to occasionally skip a period or to have a delay, it happens to most women at some point and is often attributed to stress or some kind of life change. I don't know about the yeast infection affecting your period though, I wouldn't think it would. also, there is still a chance of pregnancy, one negative test doesn't completely rule it out. I'd suggest waiting a few days or a week, and if you still don't get your period, try another pregnancy test, if that's negative, you may have just skipped. If you skip more than one, however, it's in your best interest to see a gynecologist, as something might be wrong at that point. Good luck!Health Question & Answer
