No period, negative test

I'm sorry to post this as I'm sure it's been heard loads of times but I just wanted to write it down.

I'm 26 and stopped taking my pill last May having been on it pretty much for 12 years-ish (I had a break where I had the implant for a few months).

I didn't get my period back until Christmas Eve and it lasted about 7 days. A week beforehand my boobs absolutely hurt like hell. January 24th I had another period and same thing again with the week before where my boobs hurt.

An app on my phone predicted I would be due my next period March 3rd. I had no painful breasts and no 'proper period' came. Just some very light spotting on March 3rd for 3 days.

Now it's 13th March and still nothing. I've done 3 pregnancy tests and all were negative. I don't feel like I have any real symptoms apart from maybe a slightly achy tummy in the lower part and I feel slightly sick but nothing major.

Is there a chance I could be pregnant or am I just imaging things? I know it's common for it to take a while to get your periods back but I feel like I had got them back. Have they just 'gone' again? :-( I feel really down about it all.

If you've had unprotected sex then there is a chance that you could be pregnant.

However, three negative tests is pretty conclusive, especially if any of them are recent. You've only had 2 periods since coming off contraception so you cycle could still be settling down.

Sorry to hear you're worrying. If you haven't already, try posting in the Pregnancy section and I'm sure lots of ladies will be giving you advice straight away
