If you are sure: you are not pregnant (after checking pregnancy tests twice 1 week apart), then you need to see a physician or healthcare provider for diagnosis and treatment. If you are not pregnant, then it could mean many things but hormone problems are at the root of it. Your menstrual cycle is affected by many things including nutrition, exercise, stress level, age, weather, and other medical conditions.
