normal or no?

Is it normal for someone who is 19, but under a huge amount of stress, to skip their period? Or am I pregnant..I am 26 days late and had safe ex when I was 17 days late. I had not had sexual contact before this for about a year and a half, so I knew it was stress before. Now not so much.
However, when I had sex, I had pain. I dont know whether or not it was from having sex (going too deep), ,or maybe cysts? I have no idea. I have had pain but no period.
Please only answer is you are serious.. My anxiety is going through the roof..

I know I should take a test. So please do not comment.

I'm so sorry I'm not sure what else to tell you :( You can wait for your period but if you're not pregnant and think you may have cysts or any other medical problem causing you not to have your period you really do need to see a doctor. Hopefully it is all just stress and everything is ok. I hope everything works out for you!

See.. my parents are the kind of people to not act on something unless theyre dying. It took my mother ten months to get me to a doctor after I tore a ligament in my ankle, and the surgeon told her it could have been avoided had I gone right away. When your parents laugh in your face saying Im over reacting and Ill get over it, and say I dont have time right now, I know I cant count on them for crap.

Acting like I dont know what Im going through is just ignorance. anything I post is true. Im trying to explain the situation so I can get help. Obviously you dont know it. thats why I mentioned it. thats kind of the point.

Just a regular yearly exam and check up. Just tell tour dad you're not feeling well and need to see the doc. Once you're alone with the doc tell him your real symptoms and concerns and he'll know what to do from there.

I'm not joking people are providing advice and u said to screw off. You keep saying your stress you have been giving options. I was once 19 in college I get that but being rude to people who are giving u advice even though u may not agree with it is a problem. But this is your issue so I'm over it good luck. By the way I've had a cysts before. Very painful could not walk but u probably don't want to hear that either.

O dear you definitely should be getting yearly exams especially if you are sexual active. Your father needs to understand that you are a female and that a yearly pap smear is a part of that to make sure you don't have any issues such as cervical cancer or anything. Good Luck!

Does your dad object to getting regular checkups? Have you had your anual exam yet? Just find a way to be seen by a doc, try a free clinic if there's one nearby.

Cyst can cause pain even if you haven't had sex so you Dont need to tell him that. Also if you are 19 you should be having yearly exams anyways. Look for a clinic like planned parenthood near you if you are still worried about your father.

A cyst does not correlate with sex. You are of age to.take yourself to the doctor and get checked. U should do just that

I know how much stress I have been under. I lost a woman who was my second mother to ovarian cancer, I had to plan a full blown fundraiser in less than a week for ovarian cancer, I have to cater an 8 course dinner, 3 papers, each at least 10 pages, one is 20. 3 projects. Plan a funeral and memorial, all while keeping my grades. So yeah, I think Im under a crap ton of stress dont you?

Screw off dude.

It would be to early to take a test anyway. It most likely is the stress. You should see a doctor

But then what could have been the cause of the pain I was having? And am actually experiencing as I am typing.. I was already over two weeks late, now going on 4.. but I have no idea if it was because of pregnancy, cysts, or stress..
The thing is that I am a broke *** college student, with a dad who is of extreme strict Christian faith. I dont know how to explain the situation to him, that I want to get checked for cysts, because I dont know how else to explain how I was having the pain other than I had sex.. if he found out I did I would legitimately be disowned, pulled from college just months before my bachelors, and kicked out of the house..

Please help..

used protection the last time you had sex you should be fine though and I would say that your period is late due to stress. Its not uncommon to skip periods when you are under high amounts of stress.
Stress is stress no matter what your age is sweetie. Take a test to be sure. If your period continues to not come make an appointment with your gynecologist
