20-day delay and negative tests

Well, of course, GO TO THE DOCTOR. It could be anything, but most often it's an inflammatory process—adnexitis, for example. There's nothing terrible about it if you don't let it get worse.

With inflammation, there should be at least some symptoms, but I'm completely fine, nothing hurts, and even my breasts haven't enlarged as they usually do.

No worries, go see a doctor, let them check you out, do an ultrasound... The important thing is that the tests are negative, so nothing urgent... Maybe you should also get your hormones checked? Could it be some imbalance? Have you tried taking birth control pills? Generally, such long delays aren't great, but they're not life-threatening either. Have you been to the doctor recently? At least visit doctors once a year, it won't hurt, and you won't have to be so scared.

Appendicitis, especially chronic, can be asymptomatic and not always visible on ultrasound... Get a CBC done.

I used to take birth control pills before, everything was fine, but I haven't taken them for 1.5 years now, and these issues started.

It's most likely a hormonal deficiency. Low progesterone. Go see a doctor; they'll prescribe you Duphaston or its equivalents. Take it for 10 days, and your period will come.

I had a two-month delay, and the doctor said it was persistent corpus luteum...

I've started taking Remens now, hoping my cycle will normalize. Duphaston is also helping; my period started after four days of taking it.

Go see a doctor, get an ultrasound, and have your progesterone checked. I had the same thing—nothing for a month, then I got progesterone injections, and it started. Then about six months later, the same issue again. I had my hormones tested, and the results showed I practically had no second phase of my cycle, with progesterone deficiency. In that case, there's simply no reason to expect a period. Plus, I had a corpus luteum cyst. Got the injections again. After that, I gave up and went on birth control pills (after all the tests and a doctor's prescription, of course), and now everything's regular.

What did they prescribe, if it's not a secret?

I had a similar situation recently, I had a 24-day delay and thought I was going to be a mom, even though the tests were negative. Just as I was about to make an appointment, they came....

I have a 20-day delay; I've had delays of up to 14 days sometimes. Two tests are negative, and there are no signs of either pregnancy or my period. What could it be?

Hello, I had a question: Does weight loss affect female genitalia in any way?

A 25-day delay, chest pain, backache, and lower abdomen pulling. I went to the doctor, they said the uterus is a bit soft, like in early stages, but the tests are negative. They sent me for an ultrasound, but it didn't show anything((( I don't even know what to think anymore...

Hello! At the beginning of the month, my breasts were very sore, and my stomach felt like it does during my period, plus I had three days of brown spotting! I went to the doctor, and they didn't find anything, told me to wait, and prescribed folic acid and vitamin E! I took three tests, all with a faint line! My period is already 20 days late! Has anyone experienced this? Please respond, I don't know what to think!((((

What are your results?

My period is 22 days late, but my breasts aren't sore and I have no pain, I just feel very hungry. Four months ago, I had a cyst that later resolved. Could it have come back and caused another hormonal imbalance? I haven't taken a pregnancy test yet but will do so in the next few days. My stomach is bloated as if my period is about to start, but it hasn't yet.

A 7-day delay, negative test, the gynecologist mentioned low progesterone and that there was no ovulation, prescribed Progynon tablets. I couldn't wait and went for an ultrasound, where the doctor told me that ovulation had occurred because there was some fluid present. Three more days passed after the ultrasound, and in the end, I bought these pills and started taking them. Now I'm waiting, hoping it's pregnancy.

The delay is already 22 days, tests are showing negative, this has never happened before. I went to the doctor on the 5th day of the delay, and they said there's nothing, the ultrasound also showed nothing. They said it's most likely a hormonal imbalance and prescribed three injections, but I haven't done them, hoping for a miracle. My husband and I have been wanting a child for 6 years now, but it just hasn't happened.

The delay is already 23 days, the tests are showing negative, but this isn't the first time this has happened to me. What should I do? And what could be the reason for this?

Hello! How can I assist you today?

I have a 20-day delay, took 5 tests from different brands all negative, my breasts started hurting 2 days ago like before my period, I started having sex 3 months ago, planning to see a doctor, not sure what this could be?

Hello! I have a 20-day delay now, took tests that were negative, nothing hurts. I fell at work half a month ago and hit my head—could that have some effect, or is it just a disruption? Thank you!

I'm a guy. My lady is in a similar situation. You've calmed me down. Thank you.

Wishing you girls robust health.

Hello everyone!!! I'm 25 days late. I've taken tests, all negative. On the 16th day of the delay, I went for an ultrasound—they said there's fluid in the posterior uterine space, 17.2 mm, and no pregnancy. They said my period will come in a few days.

On the 20th day of the delay, I couldn't take it anymore and went to the gynecologist. He said it's very likely that I'm pregnant, as all indirect indicators point to pregnancy. But he advised me to come back on 12/10/13. So I'm waiting and scared. I hope I am pregnant after all.

Hey everyone! I'm in the same boat here. I'm 12 days late, already had two ultrasounds, and no one's telling me anything. They just said sit and wait! But wait for what...

Same story... 20 days late, been taking Duphaston for 15 days, no signs of either period or pregnancy. The doctor said to wait... tests are negative.((

I have a 20-day delay, took 4 tests, all negative. Had an ultrasound, no pregnancy, the gynecologist prescribed 10 days of Duphaston. But I'm reluctant to take any pills; the reviews about them aren't very good. What should I do, any advice??

Hey girls... I have a slightly different situation... My period is already 20 days late. I went to the gynecologist, and during the examination, they said I might be pregnant, up to 6 weeks. I had an ultrasound, and the doctor said there's nothing there... My breasts are terribly sore, my nipples are sometimes dark and sometimes not, I feel a bit nauseous in the mornings, weak, and sleepy... By the way, the test came back negative... Now I'm completely confused and don't know what to do next...

I'm 19 days late, took 2 tests—both showed one line... I don't want to go to the doctor because a relative works there... I started having sex 3 months ago... Any advice... I'd be grateful...

It's probably just your cycle being off))) I had a 19-day delay too) tests were negative))) On the nineteenth day, I took another test (turned out with 1 line) and literally a couple of hours later, my period started) So wait a couple of days, if not then run to the doctor

Could you please tell me what your outcome was, I'm in the exact same situation)
Thanks in advance)

I'm in a similar situation—my period is 20 days late. I went to the gynecologist, and she said I was pregnant (6-7 weeks) and sent me for an ultrasound. After the ultrasound, they said there was no pregnancy and that I needed to take a blood test for hCG. I took the test, and it showed I was pregnant, but the result was low at 6.63. I went back to the gynecologist with the results, and she said, "Well, it means no, the hCG is small," but to be safe, they told me to come back in two weeks with another ultrasound. The tests are negative, so I don't know if I'm pregnant or not. I have nausea, drowsiness, and I'm craving salty food and meat...

My period is 20 days late, and I had sexual intercourse before my period. My breasts have enlarged, I've gained a few kilograms, I rarely feel nauseous and it's mild, and the test shows a negative result. Could this be pregnancy or something else?

Hello everyone... I have a 20-day delay... I took 3 tests, all came out positive. My husband and I just started trying for a baby. This is my first time having such a long delay; before, it was at most 10 days. Once, right before my period was supposed to start... I had light brown discharge in the morning, and it went away. I constantly feel dizzy... often nauseous... and for a week, my nipples have been very sore. Finally, I'm going to the gynecologist tomorrow...

I have a 21-day delay (32-day cycle) - the test is negative (last period 10/24/2014). Yesterday I had an ultrasound - here are the results: uterine size 38*35*41 - normal, myometrial echo structure - homogeneous, no formations. Endometrium 6.3 mm with a clear echo structure. No formations in the uterine cavity. The uterine cavity is not dilated. Right ovary - echo structure: follicular apparatus is differentiated, there is a dominant follicle of 17 mm, no volumetric formations. No free fluid in the posterior uterine space. The doctor ordered pregnancy tests without examining me. Can you tell me what this could be and what should I do?

So what ended up happening with you?

Hello! I had a 15-day delay, took a test after one day of delay which was negative, visited a gynecologist who confirmed a pregnancy at 5 weeks, but on the 16th day of the delay, what seems like my period started (first day) – not as heavy as usual on the first day, but it's there, and my back is aching terribly. During the delay, I had many pregnancy symptoms: fever, extremely sore breasts (they still hurt now, though not as much), lower abdomen pulling, lower back pain, frequent nighttime trips to the bathroom (which wasn't the case before), and heightened sensitivity to smells. And even now, during what seems like my period or whatever this is, these symptoms persist.

Hello everyone. I have an 8-day delay. The tests are negative. Before this, I had low progesterone. I took Duphaston for 5 months. Then I stopped taking it. I don't know if I'm pregnant or not? I really want a baby. Before this, it didn't happen for a long time. I'm constantly sleepy, and I've lost my appetite.

Please, can someone advise me!! As of today, 7.04.2015, I have a 20-day delay, took 5 tests, all negative! Today, I went for an ultrasound, and no gestational sac was seen; free fluid was found in the pouch of Douglas, and the right ovary is enlarged (15.4 cubic cm) with a corpus luteum (19 mm)! Moreover, I had an ultrasound on 12.03.2015, and there was no fluid then, and the corpus luteum was (8 mm in diameter). Is it possible that I am pregnant? I really hope so! We really want a baby!))) And I'm very worried that it might be an ectopic pregnancy((

Hey, I also have a 20-day delay now, no period, no symptoms, the ultrasound said wait it's a short term and the gynecologist says the same thing, tests are negative. I've taken like 25 tests from different brands))), the gynecologist prescribed folic acid and vitamins and that's it. I don't know what to do, now I'm trying not to lift heavy things, run, we really want a child, I'm tired of living in anticipation of a miracle, I'd rather have my period than this uncertainty. Lost sleep over all this + on top of that I eat when I'm not sleeping, that's how it is girls. They told me to wait another 15 days, then I'll definitely update.

Hey, make sure to write back later! I'm already 25 days late today, but I can't get an hCG blood test done yet. As soon as I get back to my city, I'll definitely go and take it—this uncertainty is really getting to me! We're still believing and hoping for a miracle; we really want a baby so much! Have you tried getting an hCG blood test? They say it gives the most accurate result)))

Twenty days late, took three tests at different times—all negative... No symptoms, just a metallic taste in the mouth... And I've gained quite a bit of weight...

Akulina, what ended up happening with you?

A 20-day delay! I took the first test on the fourth day of the delay, and it was negative. Then I took another on the sixteenth day, and it was also negative. There are no signs of pregnancy at all. The only thing is, there's some kind of bubbling sensation in my left and right ovaries! Now is not the time for a child, with my studies. Can anyone tell me what this might be?

Hey girls! I'm already 15 days late. I took tests on the 3rd and 8th day - both negative! My breasts are a bit sore. Sometimes my stomach feels tight like my period is about to start. There are no other signs like darkened nipples, nausea, or anything else. Last summer I had a similar delay, got my thyroid checked - everything was normal. Also had hormone tests - again, all normal. They induced my period with progesterone injections. Then everything went back to normal, and now a year later it's starting again. I have a regular sex life and we don't use protection. Has anyone else been in a similar situation? I've read on forums that some people's tests don't show positive, but I think in my case that's very unlikely. There would have been at least some signs of pregnancy by now...

Girls, it's day 22 of the delay (( my period ended on June 26th. Had unprotected sex in early July. I'm tormented by terrible doubts because the baby is unwanted, and the guy was just for a casual relationship—it was my first time trying my luck without commitments. The tests on day 9 were negative, and on day 11 too. The gynecologist felt my stomach and didn't notice any uterine enlargement. I'm only getting an ultrasound tomorrow... Can't fall asleep at 2 a.m. (( Maybe someone has been in such situations?
