Hey doctor - I am an 18 year old girl and my period is late, I have taken two pregnancy tests and both were negative, they were also pretty sensitive ones. My vagina is itchy, and sometimes it hurts to urinate, but not too badly. My breasts are also tender. Do I need to go see a doctor or can you tell me what could possibly be wrong?
Hello dear, I understand your concern. In my opinion as the pregnancy test is negative there might be no chance of pregnancy. Usually the urine pregnancy test gives accurate results a week after missed period. So in case if the test was done early I suggest you to repeat the test. If the repeat test is also negative there is no chance for pregnancy. If the vaginal itching is associated with white curry discharge then it suggests candidiasis. Pain during urination needs to rule out any urine infection. Avoid stress as stress also cause hormonal imbalance leading to delayed period. So relax. Take adequate fluids up to 3 liters per day to prevent urinary tract infection. Sore breasts can also be seen during premenstrual phase. I suggest you to consult doctor to rule out any vaginal infection. Nothing to worry as such. The pregnancy chances are rare. Hope this helps. Best regards...
