Missed Period, Negative Pregnancy Test, Weight Gain, Tender Breasts, Bloating, Gas. Pregnant?

I ve had 2 missed periods. My periods are almost always on time every month. My last period was August 7, 2012 and my husband and I have been trying for a baby. Many preg tests are negative. Slight weight gain . Breast tender, but subsiding from few days ago. Bloating and gassy. Do exercise 1 - 2x each week (zumba) and yesterday after class had some spotting. Going to Doctor tomorrow for checkup, but should I still continue exercising? Could I be pregnant? Or could it be something else?

hello,
Welcome to HCM.
There are several reason of missed or delayed period.
First exclude pregnancy by doing blood test for hcg or confirm by USG lower abdomen.
Common reasons are PCOD,over wt,hormonal imbalance,irregular eating habit,thyroid disorder,stress, psychological upset etc.
Need to investigate properly to rule out definite pathology. Do Thyroid profile,PPBS, LH/FSH etc and consult with your gynecologist.
Control over wt with regular exercise and it increase fertility rate.Avoid stress by regular meditation. Take healthy diet and proper sleep.
Be well.

Hello
The only way to be sure would be to do a pregnancy test. It is possible to miss your periods because of some hormonal disturbance too.
You will know for certain when you see your doctor. If you are not pregnant, you can carry on with your exercises as normal.
Hope that answers your question.
