    About 2 month ago I posted about might being pregnant. I took the test and it was negative. Well, I missed it again. I am craving things I've never craved for. I am getting so worried. What else could be wrong with me?

    The test could have been a false negative. You could also be experiencing a hormonal shift in your body depending upon your age.

    There are many things that can create what may appear as preg. symptoms when one is not pregnaunt.

    Have your thyroid tested

    Make sure you are eating a healthy diet daily

    Too much caffiene can create some problems also

    A simple blood test will also detect your hormaone levels... if they are off then further testing is needed to see why

    Stress is always a big factor in our body and the symptoms we experience.

    The best thing to do is to contact your physician and set up an appointment for a complete physical including lab work.

    Hope this helps hun., sorry everything is so vague, but without a deeper medical history anything is possible.

    No problem Crystal. The most important thing is tht you try your best to remain calm and not worry. Stress alone can make a person feel as though they are going insane....

    Are you taking the pill or any other medication, there can be countless reasons a girls period is irregular, I would go and see a Doctor and while your there ask him on some effective methods of birth control perhaps?

    I first got my peroid when I was 11, I'm 15 now and I never know when it'll come because it's deffently not regular. I'm use to it and think nothing of it most days. I know a girl who doesn't get hers for a long time and then gets it for two (or was it three) weeks straight. When I get mine it only lasts about 5-7 days. If I had to guess the regular intervals for my peroid, I'd have to say around three months. I don't remember when my last one was, but it was a good bit before september.

    Anyone think I might have a problem? :) It doesn't bother me, but I really don't see a big reason to worry about a peroid thats a bit off because mine doesn't have a 'bit off' it's just unpredictable.

    The same kind fo thing happened to me. Sometimes I'd even skip like 6 months. But when I turned 16 they went regular, and they've been regualer ever since, give or take a day or two. I think what helped me, other then age, was that I started to eat healthier, and organic foods. Especially organic milk which has no hormones in it. But other than that, if you're not sexually active then you have nothing to worry about.

    Lots of things can cause you to miss your period,I`ve had 3 kids and everytime the pregnancy test was accurate,any other symptoms? morning sickness?,abnormally tired? The blood work will be accurate,good luck! Be more careful sweetie!

    Deana...
    I agree perhaps we should discuss effective methods of birth control for young women...education and prevention.

    I think it's funny that the day after I posted in here, my peroid came to visist.

    Thanks guys, I blame you. Why? Because I can. I gave a reason, and it didn't have to be good....
