I'm back and it's Jan 20, 2010 and still no period. Went to the doctor on Friday Jan 15, 2010 and got BFN
I'm not under any stress and not on any pills. So, still not sure what's going on.
Tomorrow will be 14 days since I missed my period.
Can anyone tell me when should I test again?
Thanks and God Bless!!
Apparently it's pretty normal to miss a period occasionally, from what I've read... although it's never happened to me, except when I was pregnant.
Every once in awhile, maybe a few times a year, women can have anovulatory cycles, where they don't ovulate.
Eventually, the lining of the uterus will break down and slough off anyway, resulting in bleeding... often unusual bleeding: abnormally light, heavy, or clotty.
If this happens right around the time your period was due anyway, you might mistake that for a period, although it wouldn't be a true one, since you didn't ovulate. But often it's either earlier or later than a regular period.
It sounds to me like you might've experienced one of these anovulatory cycles; chances are, you'll ovulate during your next cycle, and everything will go back to normal, and your period will get back on track again.
You say you "try not to stress", but stress can actually cause anovulatory cycles, as can rapid weight loss or gain and many other things.
Or it can just happen sometimes for no reason at all.
The point is, it usually only happens for one cycle, and then things go back to normal after that.
If your cycles continue to be wonky, I'd make an appointment with the doctor.
But for now, just wait and see. i'll bet the situation will correct itself.
Good luck, hon!
around the 9th if you have a 14 day LH phase.
