Anyone 1 week late for period w/neg tests?

jenherman64 · December 2014

I am 5-7 days late and keep having neg hpts, go for blood test Monday. I have him a laundry list of symptoms that I never get w/pms. Stopped bc 10 days into my pack as they were giving me horrible side effects and we decided to start trying. I've been on and off BC for the last 6 months and have stopped a week or two into pack and always got period 28-32 days at longest. I'm driving myself a little crazy in the meantime. Just want to know if anyone is in the same boat...

If you had a negative test you are not pregnant at this time. I'm guessing you don't chart your BBT so you don't know when you ovulated. You probably ovulated later than normal, it happens. You're regular until you're not. Please don't waste money and drive up health care costs by getting a blood test. HPTs are very sensitive.

This. Exactly.

You're wasting money and time going to the doctor.

FYI: Anything up to a 60 day cycle is considered "normal."

I just had someone tell me she was 9 days late with a +hpt and then neg 2 times with blood test.

You are playing with your hormones takin and stopping the pill again and again. No wonder your body is out of whack.

You're not pregnant. Give yourself a little time to get back in balance.

Okay? You don't have that though, do you? HPTs are sometimes more sensitive than blood tests. Negative means you're not pregnant.

Cool for them. That's not you. Also, that person more than likely does not understand their body (and neither do you apparently).

So that person had a +hpt and then 2 negative blood test?

jenherman64 · December 2014

I will NEVER understand why people are so mean!!

Oh hai @bibliothecary‌! Nice to see you in these parts.

llw42614 · December 2014

@bibliothecary‌.. I came over here to check too.. Ahem I mean "stalk".. Bc I just knew she was gonna pull some dumb bullshit after we already told her she wasn't KTFU. Obviously if someone joins the pregnancy board before they are pregnant they likely will not go over well on the TTGP board either. Hopefully she learns something from all you meanie pants over here! :-*

Oh, Lord.

1) You have been profoundly confusing your body hopping on and off BCP like it's a merry-go-round. I get having to try several different pills before you find one that works, a friend of mine has been dealing with that lately. But, any reasonable doctor would tell you to finish out at least a month and that there will be side-effects.

2) Yes, it's possible to get +HPTs and have a blood test be negative. Generally because HPTs are incredibly sensitive these days and most clinics/hospitals have a threshold set for what they will consider a positive test. So, if that person's hCG level was a 20, but the hospital threshold for hCG to be considered pregnant was 40, then their blood test is negative because they needed time for their levels to rise. It's also why most hospitals/clinics confirm with urine instead of blood for most patients.

None of that applies to you because you have gotten no positive tests at all. You do not need a blood test. Take a HPT once a week or so if you feel the need, and if you reach 60 days without a period, call your doc.

bfonz619 · December 2014

OP, no one is being mean. You asked a question and it was answered. Now, you are making asinine comments towards people who have actively participated and are well known in this community. If the answers you've received so far are what you consider mean, I'd suggest you buckle up because this is nothing.

Cythe · December 2014

I think my favorite thing about this thread is that she's clearly decided that she's pregnant because she's already looked up due dates. Niiice.

llw42614 · December 2014

She also informed us on the Aug BMB that you can't get a positive HPT until you are 8-10 weeks late.. She did lots of research!

nandaboob06 · December 2014

Oh shit, hai @llw42614‌!

butlerfan · December 2014

When we decided we would start trying we:

1. finished the whole pack of bc pills and had my period (as what is recommended to do)

2. used condoms for a few months to give my body time to regulate itself and to start taking my temp, etc. This way when we were going to actually start trying we wouldn't be waiting for my body to figure out what to do after being on bc pills for 9 years.

3. Joined this wonderful group and ACTUALLY READ THE NEWBIE BLOG

Also, why would you start and then stop your pills partially through? This is just a recipe for disaster for so many reasons which have already been mentioned.

And while I know the waiting game is hard-until you temp you really don't know if you O'd and if you really are late or not. Per my charts on FF I'm at cd46 and 31dpo. I took a test last week and got a negative. I will test after a week (Friday) and continue this until cd 60 and see doctor or I get a + HPT and then see my doctor.

How are we being mean by giving good advice?

Similar boat. Though I'm TFAS & BF. So my situation is slightly different. Keep waiting & testing.

@bibliothecary‌, who sent this chick here? I think they need to wear the cone of shame for this fuckery. Dont worry, I'll bedazzle the shit out of it.

You're playing with your hormones, no wonder your cycle is off. you aren't pregnant.

I'm surprised your MD is running the test...totally not standard of care, such a waste of everyone's healthcare dollars...not to mention the lab/appointment time you're taking away from someone who might actually need it.

@GDaisy09 I would be willing to bet that her DR doesn't have the full story. It sounds like a "I'm late, need an appointment" without going into details.

This is just guess, but I'm pretty sure they'll laugh in her face for this when they realize she's had the -HPT and is only a "few days late." We probably won't seem so "mean" then...

Oh, and OP if you're reading this: when that happens, don't bother coming back here for "support." Because we're just too mean.

Biblio went back to the board and shamed the bumpie who sent her.. Lol
But the bedazzled cone of shame sounds awesome!! It should be an official TTGP "award!"

thewickedfairy · December 2014

I can't even with this shit. You're not pregnant. You don't need a blood test. FFS! Why in the hell are you starting and stopping BC on whims? Your body is so fucking confused, hence why you are having what you call "not normal" pms symptoms and no period yet.

Hai, @bibliothecary!! It's nice to see you.

bl1210 · December 2014

My doctor recommended finishing the entire pack as PP have said. I also went almost 80 days before I saw a period after stopping BC. If you are concerned, a phone call with your doctor including ALL details is a much better idea than a blood test. I would wait until day 60 for that. These ladies know their stuff...take notes OP.

bbyskittels · December 2014

OP- you might think these ladies are mean, but you are being very rude for not using the resources that have been laid out in front of you. Aka newbie blog.
Read it and learn it, or don't come back.

I'm new to ttgp and I am freaking sick of this shit. I just don't know how you regulars do it. I just can't.

chipsfordinner · December 2014

Also @jenherman64‌, please don't waste your time google image searching a photo of a positive HPT and posting it here. We've seen it before and really it's boring.

nandaboob06 · December 2014

@ABvintage‌, all is forgiven but you totally rocked the cone of shame.

acurtin713 · December 2014

But OP, to answer your Title question, yes. People have been late with negative HPT. It's called not being pregnant.

Since all these lovely ladies were too mean for you, I'll answer it short and sweet. Also, please stop wreaking havoc on your body and either stay on BC or off BC.

Nope.

Methinks we refer to that as an evap line...

But anyway, OP, you are definitely the only woman in the history of the world who came up "late" and tested negative. This means you're totes preggles. The blood test will probably be wrong too. I recommend decorating the nursery and waiting 9 months.

Anyone 1 week late for period w/neg tests?
