My period ddn't come again this month. I was supposed to have it around May 19-21 but nothing came..again. Last March was my first time having no menstruation within a month. It came by April 21 though. Now, it didn't again. I'm paranoid again.. What could possibly be the reason :( I havent had any sexual contacts. Uhm, except that dry humping I've had with my boyfriend last March 28th and april 2nd. But we only did it twice then we stopped doing it. Could it really be possible that I'd get pregnant from that? But my period came in April. But none again this May.. :(

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
Pregnancy does not result if semen of pre-cum has not come in contact with vagina or if you were not during your fertile days at time of sexual contact. If the symptoms suggestive of pregnancy are persistent, or if you suspect chances of pregnancy, you should consider visiting your doctor/gynecologist for thorough examination (to confirm pregnancy related changes/signs in body) and blood/serum HCG level test (to confirm/rule out pregnancy accurately). If pregnancy is confirmed, an ultrasound scan done will also help to know the gestational age and viability, and serial HCG levels showing doubling up of the hormone levels in 48-72 hours will show that pregnancy is going on smoothly. Visit your doctor/gynecologist for further evaluation and assistance. If pregnancy gets ruled out, further evaluation would be done to look for the underlying cause for your missed/absent periods. Treatment as appropriate (based on examination findings and investigations results) would be started to help you regulate your periods. Be in regular monitoring and follow-up with your treating doctor/gynecologist and report any new/abnormal symptoms immediately. Take adequate rest. Drink plenty of water. Maintain healthy diet and lifestyle.
Take care.
