Hi all,

I am a 24 year old female. I have been on birth control pills for years, however I am about 3 days late for my period. I have not always taken my pill 100% religiously, so I thought there might be a slim chance I was pregnant, since I am sexually active with my boyfriend of several years. Oddly enough, I have been having these horrendous hot flashes for the last 2 weeks. They have been pretty consistent and today is the first day I have had any relief I have taken 3 pregnancy tests that have all been negative. Today I had a blood test done and I will receive the results tomorrow. If I am not pregnant, I do no know what could be going on. I am very regular with my cycles and know something is not right with my body. If anyone can relate or has any idea what is going on please let more know. Thanks in advance.
