Q: PMS symptoms without period

Okay, I know what you guys are going to say.
1. If home pregnancy tests are negative, then you aren't pregnant.
2. All of those symptoms mean nothing unless you have missed your period.

Well, I have missed my period. 5 days ago. Yes, my periods are regular and they have been for four years. No, I am not under any deal of stress because quite frankly I've been sitting on my butt doing absolutely nothing for the past month. No, I have not changed my diet, I am not anorexic, nor am I on or off birth control.

I feel sick. My breasts are literally throbbing sometimes and I've been bloated. My lower back and my abdomen hurt terribly ever since 10 days after my unprotected sex. I started spotting then too. I am so gassy it's disgusting and ridiculous and nauseated randomly and I also know that most of these are PMS symptoms. But it doesn't look like my period ever decides on showing up, so I really would like advice on what could be wrong with me? thanks.

well especially since your period is late, all of this could just signify some sort of hormonal imbalance or irregularity, and if it keeps up, you might want to see a doc about it.

However, how soon after sex did you take the pregnancy tests? How many did you take? They could be wrong... two weeks after sex is usually recommended, and three weeks is even better. Could just have been too early?

Lol - you're not crazy. It's perfectly normal to dream about the things you're worried about.

But honestly, even though it sounds like you're not pregnant... go to the doctor either way! If you are pregnant, avoiding the doctor won't make things go away...

I agree with Georgia. Go see your doctor.

Good luck.
