Slightly Tender Breasts, Stomach Ache. Had Protected Sex. On Medication For Bacterial Vaginosis. Pregnancy Test Normal. Chances Of Pregnancy?

Hi, I feel very silly asking this. I normally keep up with my cycles every month, but last month, I was so busy that I forgot to jot it down somewhere. My fiance and I had sex three weeks ago with a condom. Everything went well. We didn't feel the condom tear or anything, and he said he double-checked it afterwards and found no tears or leaks. Not that I don't trust his word, but he may not have done a good job checking the condom. A few days after, I went to a gyno and she told me that I had BV and gave me a medication to take for it. I am not sure if this medication could be messing with my body or not, but I have been taking it for seven days. I have waited three weeks, and I know my period should be coming soon. I have taken three pregnancy tests so far, but all have showed up negative, although I think it may be too early to tell. I also felt my cervix. It was high, but was very firm. I have been very hormonal, slightly tender breasts and stomach aches, but that is it. I guess I am just looking for an answer or advice as to what I should do…I don't want to stress because I know you can end up missing your period because of that also.

Hello
Thanks for your query.
You are very right in surmising that anxiety and stress often lead to irregular cycles.
With three negative pregnancy tests, you can be reasonably sure you are not pregnant.
Medications for BV do not affect the menstrual cycle as a rule.
Other causes could be rapid changes in weight, exercise, travelling, mild illness, thyroid dysfunction , polycystic ovaries etc.
Instead of stressing out about it, please consult a gynecologist.
Take care.
