Last month i didn't have a period. I took a pregnacy test 2 days later and it said "negative". I waited and a couple days later i still hadn't started so I took another test. And again, it said "negative". Still to this day I haven't had my period. Is it normal to skip a period and not be pregnant?

Don't let people say that.. the Doctor's can do tests that can detect smaller amounts of the pregnancy hormone than at home tests. Yet I would say give it a couple of more weeks and then retake it. If it's still a negative, I would try to go to the Doctor's to confirm it.
So if you're negative, you could just be stressed, merely irregular, fluncuating in weight or diet habits. It can be a lot of things.
Darby answered Monday May 25 2009, 1:14 am: Sometimes girls skip periods when they're stressed out. The last time I moved I was really stressed out and totally skipped that month. Then the next month, I was later than my normal cycle too. It just completely got off wack. It could also be an issue with hormones. If you just got off or on birth control, that could be another cause. Weight fluctuations are also a common cause.
It could really be a lot of things. It's not that uncommon to skip it every once in a while. You've taken two negative tests, so you're probably not pregnant. You'll most likely continue your cycle this month.
