Getting headache and periodic cramps with spotting after intercourse. HPT negative. Am I pregnant?
Answered by
First of all, do not panic. In the setting of a delayed period, a negative pregnancy test almost certainly means that you are not pregnant. Besides the remote chance of a pregnancy, more likely this represents irregular or absent ovulation. Here is what you need to do / ask for:
1. Make an appointment with an OB/GYN
2. Get a blood pregnancy test
3. If the test is negative, ask about a short course of progesterone to "induce" a period
4. Then get on some form of birth control, not only for birth control, but also to regulate your cycle so you don't have scares like this again!
I hope that this helps. Please ask if you have followup questions.
