Have Unprotected Sex, Used Condom, Hpt Negative, White Discharge, Period Due, In Stress. Pregnant?
Hi , I am 21 and I had unprotected sex (just once) for about a minute after which we used a condom. I got my last period on the 9th of march and haven t gotten one since. I am irregular and have an unhealthy diet , I have also been stressed for the past two months. However , I have not missed my period ever , sometimes I do have them twice a month and I may also be anemic. I took 4 pregnancy tests and they were all negative and weren t taken too early as I took them all over 12 days of my first missed period , I have no other symptoms besides a white discharge once in a while. I took Regesrtrone as guided by my doctos for 5 days twice a day and stopped my dose last Wednesday. Please help me , What could be wrong ? Could I be pregnant or could this be something else ? Thank you.

Hello,
Read your history, since the pregnancy test are negative less likely that you could be pregnant.
It might be stress induced delay or hormonal imbalance which might have led to delay in periods.
Regesterone prescribed by your doctor was correct, but unfortunately you did not get the periods with that also.
I would advice you to go for a sonography of the pelvis to rule out ovarian cyst, which might have led to delay in your periods. Meet your doctor with the report as soon as possible.
Get a thyroid function test also to rule out thyroid abnormality, which can also lead to irregular periods.
Don't worry, Take care.
