I am 10 days late for my period. I took one pregnancy test 3 days ago and another one this morning. Both test came out negative. Could I still be pregnant? We used a condom the last time we had sex. What about stress? Could it cause it not to start? I have lost 15 pounds in a month. Maybe the weight loss? I don't know what to do next. HELP!

The stress from your drastic weight loss has obviously made your period crazy.
If you took two pregnancy tests, performed the test correctly and both were negative, PLUS you used a condom, I think you're in the clear.

you infact could be pregnant. you should go to the doctor. sometimes when you are pregnant in the early stages, the hormone which indicates pregnany can be very low causing urine tests to not detect it thus causing a negative result. i have one son already and was recently having the same symptoms i had with him when i was prgegnant.
(excessivley tired, frequent urination, basic nautia) and it so happens i was 6 weeks pregnant. however, the hormone level was very low as indicated my blood test. it was 100 and the doctor said thruoughout a full term pregnancy it can reach as high of levels as 100,000 so....
yes stress can also cause being late. thats happend to me too many times as well. the best thing is to just go to the doctor and have a blood test done, he should they should be able to tell you in as little as 20 minutes and its a reliable answer.

How have you lost that much? A poor diet will affet your period, as will stressing about it, so I think that you are not pregnant, you are just worried and your body believes that you are malnourished- it;s your bodies way of saying, well you;re not eating so you're not going to be fertile this month!
Give it a couple of weeks. If it still doesn't show up, then it's time for a chat with the doctor.

Well, it could be stress. But when that happened to me, I was pregnant. It was just a bit early to show up on the test. I'd get a blood test so you can be sure and stop worrying.

Could be either from the weight loss or pregnancy. Go to the doctor and find out for sure.

you could be but the only way to tell for sure at this point is to go have the blood test. call your doctor or planned parenthood. and yes weight loss and stress may also be a cause for delay / missing menstrual cycle

your period can be affected by stress, diet, and the environment around you. If the tests came out negative then I would suggest waiting to see if your period does come and if it doesn't in the next 7days i would visit your doctor

Go to the doctors and get a test. Those are much more reliable and if you are pregnant, you can get started on the right vitamins and meds and advice.

Yes, if you want an accurate test, then go to the doctor.
You would be shocked if you knew how inaccurate store bought pregancy tests are.
We have 6 kids, and I don't ever having a test work right the first time.
some never worked at all.
