What Causes Delayed Menstruation And Negative Pregnancy Test?

Posted on Mon, 21 Aug 2017

Question: am looking for counsel.

My period is 7- 9 days late.
I am 37 years old. (21 April 1980)

Usually it is very regular: 26-28 days, usually exactly 27, rarely up to 31.

My last period was 29 XXXXXXX I do monitor my cervical fluid and believe that I was fertile between 7-12 July, with ovulation around the 12th.

By the 16th July I noted the cervical fluid was thick & sticky, no odor.

19, 20, 21, 22 I had unprotected sex.

Twice without withdrawal. (20,22)

I am not experiencing any typical pregnancy symptoms, nausea etc.

I have talked several (5) over the counter pregnancy tests in the last 5 days and they were all negative.

I have scheduled a blood test for 9 days from now.

Any counsel is greatly appreciated.

I am under a lot of stress. My period is never this late, which is also stressful. In 7 days it will be 2 weeks late, I hope it comes sooner. I was worried it was maybe a etropic pregnancy. My breasts do feel heavy and last night i had very very mild cramping.
