Why did my period stop if i'm not pregnant?

Asked by nicoleh over 2 years ago, 46 answers.

I have been late on my period for 3 months. Then this month I didn't have one at all. I've taken two test which both came up negative. So if I'm not pregnant what else could be going on!? Is everything okay?

Hi nicoleh,
If you are worried about missed periods, know that it is common to skip a period once in a while. If you are sure you are not pregnant, the missed period could be due to:

stress, travel, sudden weight gain or weight loss, or increased levels of exercise (missed periods are common in athletes).

Your period should straighten out in a month or two. If it does not, see you doctor..

That same thing happend to me. But I didnt have mine for 6-7 month. It's common in some women. Stress, wieght gain/loss, sleeping pattern, work...... It's all normal!

b Im in the same situation as you, I haven't had my period in the last2months.. Probablly great and everything.. because I know I can't be pregants because I've took so many tests and they'v all came out Negative.. I'm still getting what seems to be period pains, But nothing more.. It's really confusing, and upseting.. And I wouldn't think I've been stressed.. Have put on a lot of weight in the past few months though...???
But I just don't understand why I haven't come on?

I havent had a period in 8 months, I've done tests I'm not pregnant, starting to get a bit worried too,I have put on weght I wondered if that would bea problem, beforemy perods stopped completely they had become very irregular and very very heavy to thepoint that I couldn't standup without blood running down my leg! Also me my partner haven't used protection since my son was born (he was 3 in december) so I'm quite worried,whats going on sad I know I should go docs but I'm shy about these things lol but think I may have to give in and go soon!

For a month or two now I have been experiencing fertile mucous but no period. I am not sexually active either. I am hoping that since now I am back to my ideal weight, I will son get it again.

I don't have any answers to these questions but I am worried as well. I havent had my period since october of 2007 [mind that its january of 2009]. I can't go to the doctor without it showing up on my health record and I dont want my mother to know because she doesnt know that I am sexually active. Obviously I'm not pregnant. I'm not experiencing pains either. I am a little scared that I may not be able to have children... please tell me that its something else.

I havent had my period in 2 YEARS and Im 15!!! I used to have them for about a year then they just stopped all of a sudden. I dont know if something is wrong with me or not. But im not too worried about it because at least I dont have to endure the pain I once did when I had them :P But im wondering if it could be a serious problem or just normal.

I am 29 years old, and I have two children. This is the first time that I have been this late on my period, and have not been pregnant. I have taken at least 9 pregnancy test in the last week and they all came out negative. I too, have experienced symptoms of PMS, such as cramps, mood swings ((mostly crying)), and headaches... but still no period. Not only have I had symptoms of PMS, but I have had symptoms of pregnancy, such as bloated belly, exhaustion, and sore nipples/breast.

This has been very nerve racking for me, mostly because I don't believe I am under any abnormal amounts of stress and I have not gained weight. Although these are the facts, I have started a new medication in the last 6 weeks, and I quit smoking too. So, this is my only reasoning behind the missing period...

My only advice to young and older women, seek professional help... Do not wait until it is so long and it turns out to be something life threatening! I saw my GYN and she told me that my body is just changing, and it happens to some women... Even though she told me I would be fine, I still want it to come... How IRONIC, for last 17 years I have wished my period away, and now I want it back!!!

GOOD LUCK LADIES!!

I have not seen my period since feb and why I am not pregnant?

Answered by marshmellow on May 03, 2009, 08:28AM

I didnt have a period for six years, now I've got it back and I've had it for two months!!!

Answered by exhausted on May 18, 2009, 05:13AM

I'm 34 have started trying for a baby but now my periods have packed up altogether. Excellent timing.
Where have they gone?
How am I supposed to count my cycle days when I'm not cycling anywhere?
It's hard trying to stay randy all the time. I'd rather know when are the best days to get jiggy rather than getting jiggy all the time on the off chance. My boyfriend is gleefully unaware and thinks he's Heman.
I'm exhausted.
Help.

Well I am almost 30 and my period was really light last month and this month it just went away.. I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and have lost weight but had pregnancy symptoms. Took tests to be sure all negative.. And periods going away is a symptom so ladies sometimes there is a reason for missed periods so seek medical help cause it could be serious... I'm glad I did and got answers...
Good luck ladies..

Answered by valg on May 19, 2009, 12:08PM

kittikat, I have hypothyroidism and my dr thinks that it's causing my pregnancy symptoms, since my urine test came out negative. Can I ask you, what symptoms were you having?

Answered by maccafan on Jun 07, 2009, 11:14AM

Hi Girls, I also have hypothryoidism aka Hosmitto's (spelling?) disease. I haven't had my period since March 29th 2009. I am also worried there is something wrong with me or if my thyroid? Do you think maybe my synthroid needs a boost?? Anyone know??? I am not having sex with my boyfriend (still a virgin)so I know I am not pregnant!!! Thank God! I have never even went to a gyn doctor before. I do want kids in the future so I don't wan this to ruin my chance of having kids. Anyone please get back to me ASAP it would be great.
