Q: Missed period or irregular cycle?

I'm concerned that I might be preggers.

I went over NuvaRing a few months ago [migraines]. NR forces you onto a 28 day cycle, and I'm usually a 42 day cycle.

I seemed to be continuing on a 28 day cycle for a few months, but I wasn't really counting. My LMP started on March 3rd, ended on the 10th. I was expecting to get one between March 31st and April 3rd.

Now it's April 10th, and no sign of a period. If I returned to my 42 day cycle, I'd be due on the 14th.

I took a test on the 3rd and on the 8th, both negative. But if I returned to my 42 day cycle, I could have been ovulating around the 26th (hint hint). I'm fairly sure I'm one of those women that ovulates multiple times per month. So if that's the case, I wonder if the test would show up positive if I am, since I'd only be about 2 weeks preggers.

I don't have any of the usual PMS symptoms. I don't get pregnancy symptoms, so...

A test is accurate from 10-14 days after conception. So if you were 2 weeks pregnant, a test should show your condition.

If you don't get your period, take another test with First Morning Urine in a few days. If still no period, go see your doctor for a blood test.
