Suggest Tests To Diagnose Pregnancy While Experiencing Periods Delay

I had sex with my boyfriend on May 28. My last period before that started on May 18. He didn t ejaculate inside of me and I am currently on a birth control pill. I ve never really tracked my cycle so I m not entirely sure when it s due, but it s June 17 and I still haven t started my cycle so I m a bit worried. I have been traveling a lot and exerting myself and I have been in close proximity to other women, if those play any role. I just want to know what the chances of me being pregnant are.

Hello,

Thank you for your question. Normal menstrual cycles vary considerably during the first few years after menarche, the majority of cycles in adolescents last 21 to 45 days with two to seven days of menstrual bleeding. The average adult menstrual cycle lasts 28 days to 35 days with four to six days of menstrual bleeding. The median blood loss during each menstrual period is 30 ml, the upper limit of normal is 80 ml.

If you use birth control pill make sure that you take it regular everyday. stress and tired also can effect your menstrual period. Right now you can wait from 21 to 45 days if still not period you can do Pregnancy test. If your pregnancy test is negative, you should wait and see. Until if your menstrual period still absent for more than 3 months, you should go to see your doctor. Your doctor may do some test related to your general condition Some kind of disorder can cause you absent period. They may check TSH the measurement of thyroid stimulating hormone, screening for STIs if indicated by sexual/reproductive history and other cause depend on your history and examination condition.
