DPO 19, Negative HPT's, no period: Could this be a chemical pregnancy



    
Asked by weezy_1 (Female; 35; 49604; 1 successful unassisted pregnancy at age 33; Relevant drugs:Clomid ) on Mon 09, Nov 2009 07:22am

Here's my current cycle info: Typical cycle length: 27 days (On Clomid cycles have been longer; 29 days) Clomid taken CD 4-9 Ovulation: CD 13 or 14 Brown, scant spotting on CD 23 and CD 24 (10 and 11 dpo) that stopped as suddenly as it started, never developing into a true menstrual flow. Negative HPT's: CD 25, 27, 28, 29, 32 (DPO 12, 14, 15, 16, 19) Cramping: tight feeling, twinges, not like menstrual cramps on CD's 28-32(dpo 14 or 15 dpo to 18 or 19). This tightness/heaviness is the same sensation I experienced early in my first pregnancy. Menstrual-like cramping on CD 30 (dpo 16 or 17). I am now on CD 32, 18 or 19 dpo and no sign of my period. I'm assuming this is a chemical pregnancy as 5 hpt's have all come back negative in spite of having what appears to have been implantation spotting. I will have a blood test done to be sure, but if this was indeed a chemical pregnancy, will my cycle end with menstruation and if so, when? Will I have to have a D&C or take medication to bring on my period or will my body shed the uterine lining naturally? Any insight would be appreciated...

Answer by Dr J Singh (doctor) on Tue 10, Nov 2009 08:40am:

Hi, In a chemical pregnancy, usually the pregnancy test comes out as positive whereas in your case it has come out as negative and hence I presume it’s not a chemical pregnancy. The delay in the periods could be due to other factors like stress or hormonal changes and I suggest you to wait for some more days and do a pregnancy test only 7 days after the missed period and in case that comes out as positive, you should consult a gynecologist. In between, if you get your periods, you don’t need to consult a gynecologist. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
