We're trying to figure this out. My friend is trying to conceive, and was due to start her period July 23. So far she's had no sign of it, and her cycle is fairly regular. I've been holding her hand through some pregnancy tests, but so far, all of them have been negative. She's now a week late and no sign of her period! We just tested again and the results were still negative. What could be going on? It's driving us nuts! lol!

hi! you are a great friend to do this together! some women don't test positive for a couple weeks past af due date, I know it can be a real nail biter!! I've read some women don't get a + test till 4 wks past ovulation ugggh

I would suggest getting one of those early detection tests and test again in 1 week, then if still bfn call the dr for a blood test.

another possible cause for late af could be cysts but from I've heard from talking to people there's usually pain and other symptoms with that so she would probably be feeling something wrong if that were the reason

I'm just as lost as you ladies though, I'm still waiting for af it's been almost 3 months since I went off bc and last hpt was bfn on 7/16, so I'm probably not the best person to be giving advice LOL

just thought I'd respond

GOOD LUCK!!!

I personally am in tha same situation. My period is always regular, I have never missed period. I am a week late for af and testing negative. This is totally been consuming me which is probably making it worse. I am totally sympathetic to your friend and will send some pregnancy dust her way.
