Now 49 days since my last period... negative test

cloudlessxsky3 · July 2024

Okay, so period before last was 48 days since the one before (which was due to extreme stress at that time - normally I'm around 34 days). My last period was June 8 (sex between July 3-8 (25-30 days after last period). My phone predicted I was ovulating at that time and that I would get my period between July 14-26th based on my last period). It's been 19-23 days since I last had sex. Negative digital pregnancy test this morning (bought from amazon). Do you think I'm heading towards early menopause? I'm only 34.

It’s unlikely it’s early menopause. I’d suggest tracking your BBT during your next cycle so you can actually see when you are ovulating. Sometimes long cycles can mean you are just ovulating later than usual, so tracking BBT can help you get better timing for TTC. Less likely, but still possible, is that you aren’t ovulating. That could happen for lots of reasons and doesn’t mean early menopause, but tracking your BBT would show you if you aren’t ovulating and the you’d want to talk to your doctor.

I second @britters314 suggestion to BBT. I had cycles that were usually 35-36 days, but could be anywhere from 28-50 days. BBT really helped me figure out what was going on, when I O'd each month, and to get a better idea of how my cycles were working. Reading Taking Charge of Your Fertility was also super helpful in learning how to BBT and in general.
