Current medical status: I had a chemical pregnancy at the end of november. By december 23rd. my blood test for pregnancy hormone was 0. Today is january 28th. and i still dont have my period, and i am not pregnant because i had a test last week and was negative.
Current medical treatment: No treatments now.

You didn’t tell me what your diagnosis was and what kind of medical treatment you had!

In your case, absence of the period could be due to a disturbance in the axis hypothalamus-pituitary-ovaries.

You could consult your gynecologist.
