If your pregnancy test is negative, but you still do not get your period as scheduled, you should make an appointment to see your doctor to get some blood tests and an exam to determine why your period is not coming.
Hello,
There are lots or reasons for irregular periods. Although pregnancy is one of those reasons, it certainly is not the only one. Everyone has irregular periods from time to time. I would bet that by the time you read this, you will have had your period. If you have a lot of irregular periods and are not trying to get pregnant, you could go on the birth control pill. This would help you become regular.
I hope that this helps.

Two possibilities.
1. You could be pregnant, but not far enough along for your urine pregnancy test to be positive. This typically turns positive 2 wks after conception and you could have ovulated and conceived later than usual. You can repeat your pregnancy test or see a doctor to evaluate what could be going on
2. There may a hormonal condition that is making your periods irregular. This could be perimenopause, PCOS, a thyroid condition, a pituitary gland condition , etc. Again, seeing your doctor to evaluate this further can shed some light on this and begin a treatment plan. This is important because irregular periods over many years, can increase the risk of cancer in the endometrium( the uterine lining)
