Is it in my head like every says?

[OnlyATeen]

I got back my pregnancy blood test last week and it was negative however, it's been nearly 3 months now and still no period! Also, I have some of the symptoms such as rapid weight gain, enlarged breasts, constipation, frequent urination, exhaustion, bloating and occasional nausea in the mornings. They're doing a test for everything else to see if I could be sick or have some kind of condition but, I can't stop feeling pregnant. I know that sometimes cryptic pregnancy occurs when you're stressed so the fetus doesn't produce the pregnancy hormone until later into the pregnancy and I have been quiet stressed which honestly could be the cause of my missed periods. I feel like I'm going crazy. I'm 16 and this has never happened to me before. I should get my results soon but, it would be reassuring to know if anyone else went through this and was or was not pregnant in the end!

Why do you keep having unprotected sex?

@HavelockVetinari Thank you so much, I appreciate it! Hope you find happiness in everything you do x

@Bombardier25966 I'll be the first to admit that I'm a dumb teenager in love. Sometimes its like my brain shuts of and I don't rationalise however as I said I'm definitely planning on getting an implant so I don't act as stupid in the future. :)

Seriously can't stress it enough, in addition to what ever birth control you use for yourself, you need to still protect yourself from STDs, and that means a barrier.
Love your body, keep it safe

@Chickychoccyegg Thank you, and yes hopefully I will. I can't wait for all the stress to be over haha x

@NorthEndGal I definitely agree. The only reason that STDS haven't been a worry for me is because I'm the first girl he has dated properly and slept with.

@Bombardier25966 remember you are talking to a 16 year old who has been the victim of sexual abuse, there are likely to be complex reasons behind risk taking behaviour like not using contraception that OP herself won't even understand.

OP I'm sorry to hear about what's happened to you. There is stuff online about cryptic pregnancy but it isn't something that really happens in real life, only in very rare cases. Have you got a social worker or anyone supporting you through the court case? Can you maybe discuss with your GP getting some long term contraceptive in place when you've had your ultrasound done?

@Eliza9917 I'm replying quickly because as I reply to one another comes through. I honestly am just struggling and wanted to find some people to talk to who can give advice. Your concern for the community is nice though I guess haha

I had no pregnancy symtoms till 7-8 weeks. I felt more pregnant at other times when I wasn't. The body is a weird thing.

It could be pcos and it's a good thing that your GP is looking into it. Maybe if you're a bit unreliable regarding condoms, the pill would be a better option for you. Do try to take it at around the same time (morning or night) every day and use extra protection (like a condom) if you've had diarrhea or vomiting that month. A plus is that you'll get your period each month and you know exactly when.

Please think about it, I wouldn't reccommend an accidental pregnancy.

My issue is nothing to do with how quickly you are replying.

@ItsMEhorray I have a counsellor who deals with the police and things for me. Thank you for standing up for me also but, I do understand where their concern comes from as it is fairly dumb for me to be so reckless with contraception. I'm hoping to get my implant ASAP after everything is over and done with.

@Eliza9917 Fair enough, I'm sorry my question seemed fishy I'm just honestly worried

@Eliza9917 quietly report and hide the thread if you wish.

If this truly is a 16 year old who has been sexually abused and is looking for support and attention your comments are unkind and unnecessary.

An implant alone is not enough OP. You are at massive risk of STIs unless you use condoms as well.

@explodingkitten Thank you for your input. I did look into the pill but I'm terrible with remembering things and even tend to put things off when I have an alarm set which is why I think the implant might be better for me.

@sphinxa I understand honestly, I would think it was fishy too. @ItsMEhooray @HavelockVetinari @Bombardier25966 Just to clarify for everyone I don't think I'm pregnant because I was sexually abused, the abuse is something that happened as a child however has only recently gone to court, I did have unprotected sex with my boyfriend. My worry about the sexual abuse previously in my life is that because now I'm going to court for it the stress may be affecting my menstruation.

@SirGawain if it where anybody else that would go without question, I think the reason I'm so dumb and reckless about using no protection with my boyfriend is because I'm the only girl he has ever had sex with, thank you thought. I appreciate the reply :)

Hcg (the pregnancy hormone) is produced in the first 3 months to sustain the pregnancy before the placenta takes over.

Maybe get your thyroid checked too, that can cause anovulation which is why your period disappears. I’m sorry to hear of what has happened to you. Good luck

I got banned because I was replying too much so I'll try to refrain from replying as much on threads. I was just stressed out and eager haha.

Not banned sorry temporarily shut off

In the nicest possible way you have no idea other than his word that he isn’t sleeping with anyone else. Use condoms.

@user1473878824 I guess so haha, dont worry I'm not offended

Okay well then start using condoms. You cannot be this stressed about maybe being pregnant if you’re this lax with birth control.
