Hi there, I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

1 ) First of all do not panic.

2 ) If you have regular cycles, and even after crossing your dates , if your urine pregnancy tests are negative, then you can assume that you are not pregnant.
In case of doubt blood beta HCG test and USG will be of help.

3 ) After you have rules out your pregnancy, you can simply wait for the onset of periods or induce the periods with progesterone tablets. Your treating doctor can guide you further about the doses and withdrawal bleeding of the same.

4 ) With negative pregnancy test, your symptoms can be due to PMS - premenstrual syndrome. In that case I will suggest you to opt for a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen. Avoid deep fried foods, bakery products and refined sugars. Use of long acting form of Vitamin B 6, vitamin E and evening primrose oil supplements on daily basis at least for next 3 months will be of help.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
