Why do I not have PMT or period?

Hi, I usually have a short cycle of 24/25 days. It was 28 when I was younger, but being in my mid 30's with 2 dc this has now shortened.
It is now CD29 and I haven't came on, apart from some really lightly tinged discharge when I wipe. I have no PMT and no cramps or anything. I usally have bad PMT which comes on the week leading up to my period. The only system i have is tender boobs. Has anybody experienced this?

Is there a chance you could be pregnant?

I don't think it would be that, me and dh did have sex before ovulation, but he pulled out. We did again later in my cycle and he didn't, due to it being after ovulation. He is booked in to get a vasectomy, and I had to come off birth control a good few months ago due to it not agreeing.

Also when I wipe it is so light, barely there discharge, there's nothing. I remember with my first 2 having pmt and all of the signs I was about to have a period then didn't.

Sorry forgot to mention as well, I ovulate really late so a shorter luteal phase usually cd17 and then period cd 24. This month we had sex cd21, so 8 days ago. Surely that would be too late for a pregnancy to stick and make my period late?
If anyone could put my mind at rest, or has had a similar experience I'd be really grateful.

Pee on a stick

Pregnancy looks scientifically impossible but if still nothing in acouple of days i will. Would be good to hear from somebody who has had a similar thing happen.

You could be heading towards an early peri-menopause. Some women get remarkable cycle length alterations. Mine went short for a few years, then long and they the most remarkable free style. Also I went from PMT with a vengeance to post menstrual depression.

Honestly with the tender breasts, I'd pee on a stick and then look for other reasons.

I mean it nicely. I once had unprotected sex, just outside my fertile window. I have two 30y/o s to prove it Grin

Thank you for your messages @AdventFridgeOfShame I will definitely do that if my period doesn't show in acouple of days. Gosh men don't have any of this to contend with!
