baby is 12 weeks old. i had tubal done day after. not breastfeeding. no period yet? negative pregnancy test. is this normal? should i be concerned?

Question

Stopped breastfeeding 6 mo old & had what I thought was period. It lasted 2 days 48 days ago. No period again, neg pregnancy tests. Can I get preg?

Answer 1

No: It takes variable amount of time for regular periods to return. As long as you are otherwise in good health, this is not a cause for concern.

Answer 2

Repeat the test: Sometimes it takes up to a weeks for the urine test to turn +. If you feel pregnant and continue to have a negative urine test i suggest that you have the more definitive blood test.

Answer 3

Do a blood PT: You need a blood bhcg, if neg could be form other hormones being not right or other pronblems, your gyn can figure out what is going on when you see your gyn or a gyn, they will do an exam, blood work and ultrasound.

Answer 4

Blood HCG: If you had sex since your last period, get a blood test for HCG level to settle the issue of pregnancy.

Answer 5

Water retention: It could be other things, but probably some lingering hormonal changes like water retention. If you think pregnancy is possible, then do a test.

Answer 6

Many reasons: The clinic should have already told you possible causes, could be pregnant or problems with your female hormones you need the results of the blood and cultures and i recommend getting a pelvic ultrasound by a gyn doctor.

Answer 7

Many causes: STDs usually cause too much bleeding rather than delayed periods. Stress,weight, exercise, diet, medications, and diseases such as thyroid disease,diabetes/insulin resistance, PCOS, adrenal disorders, and pituitary problems can all cause you to miss periods. The clinic probably tested for all of these,and you should have your answer soon. Best wishes.

Answer 8

The flu?: The symptoms indicate your body is fighting off some nasty infection. Serious and treatable infections need to be excluded. If none found, most likely it is viral flu.
