What Could Delayed Period & Negative Pregnancy Tests Indicate?
I'm asking on behalf of my girlfriend. We had sex 3 weeks ago. (2 weeks to her period), she had not seen her period for over a week from the last time it was due. She has gone for pregnancy check (blood test) and also used the urine kit to test and both came out negative. What could possibly be the problem?

If the pregnancy tests were negative and the monthly period for your girlfriend does not come, some possibilities exist. A period can be missed due to nervous tension, hormonal imbalance, weight change, or particular sicknesses. She should visit a gynecologist to make sure. They will see what might have caused this and advise on what to do next.

Female | 31
Getting a P-test as negative with irregular menses and movements in the stomach with this information the chances of being pregnant cannot be ruled out.
Most important factor associated with P-test is when and how it is being performed.
False Negative Pregnancy Test
- A false negative pregnancy test is in case you are pregnant but the test comes up negative. The most common reason behind false negative is that the test was performed too early.
Even though your period is late as per your usual cycle, you might have ovulated later in the month. It's not unusual to have an off or irregular cycle occasionally. In addition to it, you must have counted the number of days from your last period incorrectly
Pregnancy tests assess the pregnancy hormone hCG, which rises as pregnancy progresses. The standard range for hCG levels in pregnant women may differ. Pregnancy test before the specified time might pick and detect low amounts of hCG.
-Another reason behind the false negative is not having sufficient hCG in the urine while performing the test. In the early days of pregnancy, there is chance that the hormone concentration can get diluted in case you consume a large amount of water before testing.
The hCG concentration is on the higher side in case you have hold the urine for long time and that is why it is recommended that you should take a pregnancy test in the morning.
This is the best time to consult Best Gynecologist near you for further treatment.

A yeast infection seems likely based on your symptoms. Intercourse or antibiotics can sometimes trigger these infections. You're probably experiencing itchiness, discomfort, and a thick, white discharge. To ease your symptoms, avoid sugary foods and beverages. Wear loose, cotton underwear. Use an over-the-counter antifungal cream. However, it's best to consult a gynecologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I missed my periods, I was checked pregency test twice a time. but both tests are negative
Female | 30
Missing a period can occur for various reasons beyond pregnancy, such as stress, hormonal imbalances, significant weight changes, or certain medical conditions. Negative results on tests often indicate that pregnancy is unlikely. It's important to monitor your overall well-being and consider other factors affecting your cycle. I recommend keeping track of your symptoms and any lifestyle changes. If your menstrual cycle doesn’t return soon, consulting a gynecologist for a comprehensive evaluation is advisable.

Missed period 6 days but white paduthal continues 5 days
Female | 21
It's understandable to feel concerned when experiencing a missed cycle along with ongoing white discharge. This can be attributed to various factors like hormonal imbalances, stress, or early pregnancy. Discharge can be normal, but if it's accompanied by unusual symptoms, it may indicate an underlying issue. I recommend tracking your symptoms and considering a home pregnancy test if you are sexually active. If the missed period continues or if you're anxious, please consult with a gynecologist for personalized advice and support. They can help identify the cause and ensure your well-being.

why does grey discharge anytime to a girl. is there any problem?
Female | 21
A grey discharge may signify an infection. This discharge often has a fishy odor. Bacterial vaginosis, a bacterial infection, is a common culprit. While typically not severe, seeking medical attention is crucial for proper diagnosis and treatment. A gynecologist may prescribe antibiotics or other medications to resolve the issue.

Pregnancy kit me halki gulabi line means kya hai?
Female | 28
Halki gulabi line pregnancy test par ek initial sign ho sakti hai, jo shayad pregnancy ki taraf ishara kar rahi ho. Yeh line light hona, hormone hCG ka low level dikhata hai, jo first few weeks mein hota hai. Symptoms jaise missed period, nausea, ya breast tenderness bhi pregnancy ka indication hai. Yeh zaroori hai ki aap ek gynecologist se consult karein, jo aapki health ko assess karke accurate guidance de sakte hain. Testing ko do baar karna bhi useful hai, kyunki time ke sath hormones badhte hain.

Female | 35
It’s common to wonder if a late period is normal. Many people experience different symptoms, such as feeling unusual or strange. Early signs of pregnancy can include morning sickness, exhaustion, and breast tenderness. Taking a home pregnancy test can help, but it's important to consult a gynecologist for confirmation and guidance.

There is delayed in period. I want to know the exact reason
Female | 24
While some delay happens regularly, many things make periods late. Stress changes weight. Hormone problems also occur, like polycystic cysts. You'll feel pain, bloat, mood swings. Doctors help find why cycles stop. They suggest exercise, diet, and meds to keep your body on track. Seeing a gynecologist ensures proper care.

Hii i lost 10 kg weight in an year without any exercise or diet with hairfall and I am 21 yr old female I had painful periods with vomiting previously and I took emergency contraceptive pill 4 times in an year
Female | 21
You lost 10 kg in a year, without trying. Also, you had hair falling out, and vomiting during periods. Taking emergency contraceptive pills frequently may impact your body. These symptoms indicate possible hormone imbalances or lack of nutrients. You should see a gynecologist. They will assess these issues properly.

Good afternoon I am 29 years of age I am 14 weeks postpartum without breastfeeding because I lost the baby at birth but I want start trying again. But my concern is that I have not started my period yet after I had lochia for 2 and d half weeks. Is it something I should be worried about?
Female | 29
After pregnancy, it's quite normal to have irregular periods if the situation is stressful for you. Your body might require some time to get it reconciled. Stress and hormone levels play a crucial role in the regulation of your menstrual cycle. If you're not starting to have any other symptoms like pain or fever, it's likely just a natural delay. If you feel worried, you can always stay safe by seeking advice from a gynecologist.

My periods got delayed by 6 days. Today I done beta HCG test but I was negative. Is there any chance to become pregnant?
Female | 27
Missed periods happen occasionally due to various factors. Stress, routine alterations, or hormonal imbalances may cause delays. The negative pregnancy test suggests you're likely not expecting. If bleeding doesn't start after a while, tracking menstrual cycles and consulting a gynecologist can provide insights.

Hello my doctor have prescribed for me duphaston to regulate periods I’m supposed to take it from the 11th day I was wondering about the days count is it’s 11 days after the last period or 11 days of the cycle it self meaning counting my period also
Female | 27
It's great that you're taking steps to understand your treatment. When counting the 11 days for Duphaston, you should start from the first day of your last menstrual period. This means your counting begins on the day your period starts, and you take the medication on days 11 to 25 of your cycle. This medication helps regulate hormone levels, particularly if you experience irregular cycles or other related symptoms. If you're unsure or have specific concerns about your treatment, please don't hesitate to reach out to your gynecologist for personalized guidance.

I tested pregnancy in home today got very very light faint pink line on T within 5-10minutes. Later that line disappeared what does it mean?
Female | 26
Since most home pregnancy tests turn a faint pink color, even if it is just a slight tint, this implies a positive result, even if it is weak. However, the vanishing of the line within a couple of minutes can be a sign of a chemical pregnancy which indicates that an egg that was fertilized doesn’t develop properly. One should be keen on consulting a gynecologist or an obstetrician to have confirmation of the pregnancy.

Female | 32
An imbalance of good and bad bacteria in the vagina can lead to infections. These include yeast infections or bacterial ones. Common symptoms are itching, swelling, and discomfort. Over-the-counter creams may provide relief. However, seeing a doctor for prescription medication is recommended. To prevent future issues, wear cotton underwear and avoid scented products. These simple steps restore balance and promote vaginal health.

Female | 22
Late periods and breast pain can be concerning but it's common and can have various reasons. Breast pain mostly occurs due to hormonal changes such as before periods. Stress, diet changes, or medications can also affect periods. Make sure to chill, eat well, and exercise. If the problem persists or gets worse you may want to see a gynecologist.
