I am 15 days late for AF. I have an appointment with my doctor in 3 hours. My last period was January 17th and today is March 1st. My cycle usually runs about 28 days give or take 1-3 days occasionally.
I am 35 yo female. I have had 3 children ages 12, 8 & 7 now.
I do want to acknowledge that I fell down the stairs on January 14th and sustained a few broken and displaced ribs. I spent the next three weeks laying flat on my back but I did have a normal period that started 2 days early on January 17th. During recovery I took steroids for a week. hydrocodone for a week. Wen't back to work February 6th. I had spent the rest of that time healing without any medication stronger than ibuprofen.
My fiance and I had sex on the 6th or 7th. My ribs hurt so bad we couldn't finish. (He did not orgasm)
My next period was due feb 14th. It didn't come. I had pms leading up to the date, cramps, etc... but no period. I didn't stress about it. I knew it was probably just a little glitch and my period would come soon. Last week we took the kids on a family vacation and I barely thought about it at all so I know it's not stress chasing AF away.
I have taken 4 pregnancy tests between February 16th and February 26th just to be on the safe side as I still needed xrays and such. All tests were Negative. Not even an evaporation line.
Because my fiance and I only had sex once, he didn't ejaculate and urine tests are negative, I'm assuming the chances of pregnancy are very slim.
Everyone told me it was probably my rib injury infringing on my cycle but that injury was a month before my missed period plus I still got my period while healing days after I fell.
I guaranteed my fiance I was not pregnant until yesterday. I had this huge mental breakdown/ sob fest and now ive been crying ever since. My pants don't button. They are too tight. My boobs hurt a bit. Every little thing makes me cry. It's really weird. I only was like this when pregnant with my children. So only these last two days I've worried I may be pregnant. Even though i realize how unlikely that is... I still feel as though I REALLY AM.
What else causes this?
Sore breasts
bloating
insomnia at night
fatigue & brain fog during day
major mood swings
suddenly hungry
fat pants don't fit
vanished period

Just to follow up. My period came 18 days late. It was a normal period but slightly lighter than normal. My ultrasound was yesterday and the results are in. I have a cyst on each ovary and a fibroid in my uterus.
Follicular cysts bilaterally. The right ovary measures 3.8x2.3 cm, the left ovar measures 3.3x2.1cm. No free fluid is identified.
There is a 1.2cm posterior uterine fibroid.
I'm guessing this was the cause of my late cycle. I attempted to call the doctor regarding my results but I waited 40 minutes and no one was able to come to the phone to tell me what the treatment plan is or if we are just going to watch it.
