Patient's question:
I got my period on February 19th last month. My cycle is very regular, 28 days/7 days. February has a total of 28 days, so I was supposed to get my period on March 19th. However, it didn't come. What could be the reason?I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend on March 5th, but it was withdrawal. On March 18th, I also took a pregnancy test, and the result was negative. What could be the reason? Is there still a possibility of pregnancy?
