Pregnant Or Meds

Brittmk92 - September 23

Hi all, hoping someone might have an answer for me. I am currently 5-6 days late for my period, based on my regular cycle of 21 days. Last month my period hit 5 days early, it has been very irregular the past year or so and switches every few months but usually stays to 21 days in between that. On Thursday, the day before I was supposed to start,I got my regular PMS symptoms: cramping, nausea, headache, low back pain, hot flashes/chills. However I still haven't had any bleeding. The past few months I have been inconsistent with my BC, lots of doubling up, and usually had sex with my husband during those times. I also started herbal medicines almost two weeks ago to start repairing my thyroid and adrenal glands, so I'm unsure if those might have something to do with my symptoms. I'd been on them a week when when my symptoms started. I've done some searching and people with similar symptoms usually find out they are pregnant, but my husband is convinced it's my meds resetting my body to work properly. I know this is a lot of info, I'm just trying to see if anyone has an answer for me and whether I should test. Thanks!

I think a 21 day cycle is short to be thinking of pregnancy. Interesting that you keep 21 days in spite of taking bc pills. Glands are tied in to the menstrual cycle so malfunction there has to be considered. I am inclined to side with your husband, but run a couple of preg tests, one this weekend and again a week later to be sure. GL!
