I only have periods twice a year, could I be pregnant?

Question

I've had an irregular cycle for quite some time now. Because I am overall healthy and none of my tests are cause for alarm, doctors have been unable to understand why my body does this. I have periods every 5-7 months if that. I say all this because I've been nauseated for the past week and now I'm experiencing abdominal discomfort, almost like cramping, but very light. I'm wondering if I could be pregnant. I've taken two tests, both negative. I've had intercourse 3 times over the past 3 and a half weeks. Has anyone experienced anything like this before? I have a doctors appointment today, I just wanted some feed back. My nurse told me to begin monitoring my temperature every morning to see if I ovulate at all. Any advice or shared experience would be great.

Answer 1

With the periods i think you should really consult a different physician, if the one your attending doesn't give you an explanation. But the cramps could be a urinary tract infection if your tests confirm no, but have the doctors give you a pregnancy test through blood works this should give you a definite answer. Good Luck

Answer 2

you need a second opinion. something is going on you should have a period every month. you could be see the doctor for a blood test

Answer 3
