I have been experiencing some pregnancy symptoms for the at least ther past month....my cycle is very irregular but i have recently figured out the irregular cycle that it seems to be playing out....I the first day of my last cycle was April 5th....I havent had one since...i have gained weight and my breast have become swollen and tender at times they also have prominent blue veins running all up and down them. I have taken numerous pregnancy tests and they all have come up negative. my sister says that it may just be stress but how can she explain the veins in my breasts and my stomach......i have a very light complexion but i have never seen these veins until up to about a month ago......i have noticed that the veins in my legs,thighs,and arm are more prominent....can anyone please help me out with any experiences that they may have had that can relate?????????????

The best thing you could do is go see your ob/gyn. You can't diagnose pregnancy based on symptoms because they can really be symptoms of a multitude of things. Go ask for a pregnancy blood test since it's been so long since your last period and maybe just ask for a checkup.

Well, the problems with urinating sounds a bit like a uti to me. In all seriousness, I would say a trip to the doctor is in order. While you may not be pregnant, something is keeping your period from starting. Your hormones could be out of balance which could be causing the breast tenderness and your prominent veins. The hormone progesterone can cause the blue veins you are talking about. Ifr you are worried about not having insurance or money go to a planned parenthood clinic. They do free and low cost pap smears and can also do a blood test for pregnancy if needed.
