Hi,
I understand your concern.
If you are pregnant, urine pregnancy test should be +ve after 8 days delay in period.You have _ ve test, meaning you are not pregnant. If any doubt can be cleared by blood HCG testing.
-After delivery, the menstrual cycle is disturbed due to sudden withdrawal of pregnancy hormones,
- Lactation interferes with menses & there is physiological absence/irregularity of menses during lactation.
- Your irregular contraceptive must have aggravated the hormonal imbalance further.
* due to either of the causes, you have no pregnancy but your period has stopped.
Thanks.
