No Period. Why?: There are a lot of possible reasons for a delayed or missed period. Pregnancy is only one of several possibilities. I know dr. Fowler cut and pasted a complicated list of these possibilities for you. It may be nice to see if anything on that list sounds remotely possible. If you are sure one of them is your problem then bringing that to a gyn may be the next step.
