Question

i have put up posts today and gotten not many responses....i am so worried my period is 3 days late....i am normally pretty regular....i am on the birth control pill and have been for almost three years....my boyfriend and i never risk anything....he never goes inside me and we never "pull out" when it gets close....we don't even wait until that point....but it is three days late....took a hpt this morning with first morning urine and it negative (first response)....i have been under a lot of emotional stress for the past three weeks because i am getting ready to graduate college and in my last REALLY hard class, physically and mentally....and my grandmother is living with us in hospice care dying of cancer....so lots of stress the past three weeks....could it be due to stress or could i possible be pregnant?

Answer 1

It really sounds like you are going through a lot of stress. I really don't think three days is late. I am on birth control ( have been for 4 years) and it happens sometimes when you have changes in your life. It affects your body. I bet you will start soon. The more you worry, the worse you will feel, believe me. Just take it a day at a time. Now, if a month goes by, I would take another test or see my doc. But, I just bet you'll start soon.

Answer 2

The fact that you do take so many precautions it is unlikely that you are pregnant. You say that you have a lot of stress right now and honestly this is prob. the cause. The more stressed out you are the more it can cause trouble with the body especially with a woman's cycle. Try to relax as much as you can, take some deep breaths when you feel the stress building up I hope this helps.

Answer 3

People would not believe what stress can do to your body.
I, like you got my period every 28 days like clock work then all of a sudden I started getting my period every other month.
I went to the doctors and he ask if I was under a lot of stress I
told him I was.I had just gotten married and we just bought a brand new house if that isn't stress then I don't no what is.The
doctor told me it was doe to stress and not to worry about it .
I was 27 at the time and my period stayed like that for 18 months.I kind of like it,you no how much of a drag getting your period is.Your not period and don't worry you will get your period in the next week I bet you 10 points.

Answer 4

It is probably stress. It sounds like you are having a lot of problems right now. What did the test say? They are very accurate, so whatever it says, that's probably right. Try to relax a bit. I have BEEN there!! I think most women have!! Good luck!

Answer 5

you are probably just VERY STRESSED and understandably so ... you have alot on your plate... just find some time to clam yourself down and stop worrying about everything for at least an hour or two.. when i get really stressed my period will be late... but usually its b/c i am stressed i am pregnant and when i take the test it relives my stress and then i will start just try to relax and it will come...

Answer 6

Either one but probably stress. Stop worrying and your period will show up. If you are that worried go to the doctor or to planned parenthood to have a blood test.

Answer 7

i'd bet on stress or just an effect of taking the pill for 3 years. chill out, believe the test, and stay on the pill. if you miss next month, go see your gyno.

Answer 8
