Question 3

my period is late by 18 days. ive never had a late period. took over 10 hpt tests all neg, as well an ultrasound & blood test. what could it be?

Possible reasons...: In a woman with regular periods, some causes of a late period include: excessive weight loss or weight gain, increased exercising, emotional stress, having an illness, traveling, medicines (like birth control pills), hormonal imbalances, etc…  seeing a doctor is a good idea if symptoms are persistent, recurring, or worrisome. Pregnancy tests are very accurate by 3 weeks after sex.

my period is late and  i am constantly burping and i feel gassy. why is my period late even though i have pms symptoms. why am i burping constantly?

Good question but...: feeling full of "gas" may reflect malabsorption of food (like gluten, lactose), intake of poorly digested food, or choosing foods known to promote gas (beans, fizzy drinks), a stomach emptying too slowly, bacterial overgrowth syndrome, delayed intestinal function, partial obstruction from any cause, infection, rectum problems, and pelvic pathology outside the gut--check home pregnancy test now.

May repeat: pregnancy test and see your doctor for treatment of yeast infection and get checked for other causes of delayed periods beside pregnancy

Question 6

i havent had sex and im still a virign however my period is late. could i be pregnant? symptoms: sore breats with veins. im worrying a lot late period

Accepted Answer

Only rarely happens: A virgin has not have sex. Only rarely can a woman or girl get pregnant without sex. She would have to get sperm into her vagina another way, such as with fresh sperm on fingers. Also rarely, she could "pass out" due to alcohol or drugs, and not remember that somebody stuck a penis inside her while she was "passed out". If these things might have happened, she can do a home pregnancy test.

hello doctor, i had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. i took 2packet(4tablets)of postinor2  now my period is late,i haven't gone for pregnancy test yet. i want to know if the pills i took has something to do with my late period.

Accepted Answer

Late periods: It depends on how old you are or if you have had intercourse within the "danger" period, but missed periods for females almost always warrant a pregnancy test.  After Postinor you may expect some deviation in your menstrual cycle due to the large dose of hormone you received.  Sometimes the deviation can last up to several weeks as your body tries to reset itself.  Thanks for trusting in HealthTap
