Missed Period

[CollegeGirl6]

My period is 4 days late, and I am a little worried, any advice?

Well, are you sexually active? If so, when was the last time? What protection was used? How regular are you usually?

Given how little you have given us, go get a pregnancy kit.

I have sex like almost once every week, no protection was not used. My period is usually every 28 to 29 days, I stopped taking BC(Yasmin) about three months ago, but I had periods while I was taking it.

Honey,

Having unprotected sex is intended by nature to result in more people. Contraception is merely a set of techniques to reduce the likelihood of pregnancy.

Being purely statistical, if you have unprotected sex 29 times there is a fifty percent chance of becoming pregnant. Having stopped the birth control pill and continuing to have sex without other protection is simply asking for pregnancy. Time to get tested and do not be surprised if the test is positive.

Its going on day six, and still no period, but I wanted to add that i was in a car accident about 2 weeks ago, and I wasnt badly injured, I just had the air bag slap me, so I kind of wonder does this have anything to do with it, because my car was totaled and I was kinda stressed over that.

I think that stress can cause your period to be late. And, car wrecks are usually stressful, plus the stress that you might be pregnant.

But, having sex with no protection, like Brandye said, is only meant if you want to have a child. No offense, but i hope you or the male you had sex with, would of have at least had the knowledge to use a condom, they are very easy to obtain. From the tone of your post, you do not sound ready to have a child.

My last period was on Dec 6. I do not have any physical symptoms of pregnancy other than a late period.

Best thing to do is purchase a pregnancy kit. *The stress of wondering if you are or aren't will be answered with a pregnancy kit. *They can be used a few days after a late period. *They are very reliable and you will have your answer in one minute.

Btw, you may or may not have pregnancy symptoms this early on if you are pregnant.

[Brandye]

The best sign of pregnancy is a missing period. This should have been thought out before stopping the pill with no alternative contraception.

Well, I took an ept pregnancy test yesterday, and it was negative, so I do not know what is going on with me. I still havent gotten my period yet.
