Question
hi... i had an abortion on nov 20 and i still have not yet recieved a period.. i was worried so i took 5 pregnancy test and all said negative. is this normal not to start and also i thought i was going to start because my boobs were hurting and i was getting those headaches but no period and now my boobs dont hurt

Answer
Hi Kylie,

This is somewhat abnormal to not have a period for this length of time. But perhaps it is possible. I would recommend going to your doctor and get a complete check up. If you want to get a second opinion of a pregnancy test, you can find a local pregnancy resource center. You can find one at http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP. Another helpful website is
