Last month, her period came 1 week behind, but now it's already 8 days! We had bought a pregnancy test to see if she's positive but to no avail. It showed a single stripe meaning she's negative. How come she doesn't have her period? All she produce is whitish-like fluid...What seems to be the problem? Thanks to those who'll help.

She could just be irregular. She should go see a doctor esp. for her annual visit & talk to them about it & if you guys do not wish to be parents the get on Birth control & use condoms!!!
Better yet stop having sex till you are married.

Stress causes irregular menstrual cycles. Also, Bacterial Infections can lead to this too.
I would not worry too much but she should go to her ob/gyn and get a regular check up every 6 months to be safe.
Good luck!

you both need to take a sex-ed/reproduction/contraception class before you have sex again

not all women have regular periods - the other fluid is discharge and it's appearance changes during the course of the month - all very normal

you've already had one pregnancy scare - you need to take extreme precaution unless you want to be a daddy


Delay
Forget her - here's what you need, a fifth of jack. Chill. Deal with it when its confirmed and don't sweat it right now.

It can be very common to be late if one is under a lot of stress. The white fluid is common right before a woman is to have her period. She will have it, if the test says no, it is no.

hurm..maybe she is having a hormonal imbalance.. that's y her period is late..

You know girls bodies are just like that..
This month I did a pregnancy test cos I was 10 days late.. I have done so many.. Not cos I sleep around.... I have a boyf and we are careful.. It's just just I always want to make sure "just in case"

Your cycle is supposed to be 28 days - that's an average, but mine can be anything up to 45 days, I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing, but I'm used to it now.. The only bad thing is that it is unpredictable.. But I really wouldn't worry about it, as long as she isn't suffering any discomfort then she should be fine, maybe a trip to the doctors just to make sure everything is working just as it should, but you'll prob find it's nothing.

A period can sometimes be delayed if you are a bit stressed or if you have not been eating well, or have been ill.. There are loads of reasons why it can come late..

womens periods can be effected by many things, stress, change in diet, the moon :), keep an eye on it go to a Dr if it concerns her. also take another pregnacy test in a day or 2 sometimes the pregnancy hormone does not show up until after 10 days

woman often skip periods when there under stress, and as she missed her last period i would probably say that this is the case. but dont leave anythin to chance, go and visit a doctor and get them to do a pregnancy test as well as a general examination.

sweetie if you have had sex she could be pregnant those test can come out wrong. but it can be normal to be late you need to see if she is under a lot of stress or if you are young which if you are her body could just be trying to regulate

go to a doctor. sometimes pregnancy tests are wrong or maybe she has an irregular period. if this is a reoccuring pattern it could affect her down the road when she wants to have kids. so fixing it now is a good idea.


auburngirlsc
Could be different causes. Possible pregnancy even though the test was negative. Try another in a few days to a week. Stress has a tendency to effect periods. If she is really stressed, she may spot or go longer between periods. Just give it a little more time.

calm down!! Lot of things can effect that, stress for women can cause a late period. White stuff is a normal discharge, should she not start soon then take a test, it wouldn't show up now anyway, calm down, and remember to use protection.


Lou
Your gf may not have a regular cycle and this should be a trigger for you to be more diligent in your bc methods. By being responsible and following through with your mutual responsibility on prevention, you won't be facing this issue again.


Snoopy
Many things can cause a woman to cycle late - she could be sick, under too much stress, have a poor diet, or have recently changed her level of physical activity. If she hasn't gotten her period in another 3-4 days, repeat the HPT. If it's still negative, encourage her to see her doctor for follow up.

First question: Are you using birth control? EVERY time?

Women can be late. She can go see a doctor, but it sounds like a yeast infection.

Periods are regulated by hormones, so they can vary, or even skip once in a while.

Use reliable birth control and you won't have to worry about it.

Well first off the white fluid may be a yeast infection... and women do go through a period in their lives when their period will be irregular do to stress, change of diet, or hormonal changes in her body... you said you took a test it was negative.. but just to be on the safe side go to your doctor and get a blood test just to be sure... hope everything works out.


oh-my
relax, she is probably going threw some change, her menstration could be 2 week late if possible,
wait excacly 3 weeks then panic.
irresponsible use protection or get pills.
oh who am i to say that lol.

First of all if you do not want a baby you or her or both should be using some kind of protection. But it sounds like it is a little to late for that now. Alot of things could be making her late. Stress, health, eating habits, etc. What she needs to do is go and see a Doctor and get checked out really good and make sure there is nothing wrong. Not to make things worse, she may be pregnant and it is to early to tell by a store bought kit. Go have a blood or a urine test done. But what ever you do get her into see a Doctor ASAP!!

Unfortunately, periods can be unpredictable and everything from the level of physical activity to diet to emotional states of well being can influence her cycle.

Get on the pill and do it now!!!

(if you can't bring yourself to buy and use condoms to protect from other things like AIDS or HERPES which is also INCURABLE and 70% of the population in YOUR AND MY AGE BRACKET HAVE IT.)

Also, take care with the pregancy test you use. Make sure it's the kind that can detect the pregnancy hormone the earliest.

Oh, AND GET ON THE PILL. I've been where you are and done that, and the added expense is WELL worth being able to live WITHOUT this kind of stress every month....or worse, learning that you're pregnant and being horribly unprepared. If you can't get it through private insurance, look up your local Planned Parenthood.


chmar11
buy another test or have her go see the doctor it could
be an infection


tjnstlouismo
You know you could avoid this drama by being responsible and using birth control or better yet, don't have intercourse until you are able to be a parent.

She should talk to her doctor.


Barry C
If you want a more definitive pregnancy test, take her to a doctor or clinic.

Periods can be irregular for lots of reasons. sounds like this one is stil on schedule from last month though! think about it!

If this is happeneing regularly, maybe you both need a better birth control method, or you are not ready to be having sex at all if you don't know how all the parts work!

Why the Hell are you having sex if you don't want a baby?

man+woman+sex=baby! Why don't people get that?

I dunno, but u should have learned your lesson last month...

stop having unprotected sex.


allison, yo
that white stuff is called discharge. And sometimes periods are irregular, don't worry, she may not be pregnant, she just may have "one of those months" Stress also, can do that.

If you are worried about her becoming pregnant don't have vaginal sex with her. Tell her she has a mouth and it wasn't put there to talk.
