Thread: Pregnancy or ovarian cyst?

Hello
I'm 22 yrs old and for the first time ( if I don't count the times during my first yrs of menstruating) my period is late.
My last period was on the 8th of May and at this time I was having 26 and less days cycles due ( before this time my period was on every 30/31 days).
Also I would like to note that I'm experiencing some menstrual-like cramps which come and go occasionally,my breasts seem heavy and sore and I'm very cranky and moody.
No nausea or vomiting what so ever.

I would like to note that almost 4 months ago I've been diagnosed with cyst on my left ovary aprox. 5 cm in diameter.I've been having this cyst problems when I was younger too,but my period was never late like this.
I had unprotected sex with my husband before my ovulation but I guess I had miscalculated my fertility days.

I was wondering if I could be pregnant or all this is due to my ovarian cyst problem.I'm still waiting to take a home pregnancy test as I'm worried that the result will be negative which will make me think that someone's wrong with me.
Is it normal that my period is so late because of for instance my cyst got bigger or ruptured?I just want to add that I don't have any significant abdominal pain except some bloating,gas and time to time lil cramp.

Any advice/thought/opinion would be greatly appreciated.

A million thanks

Well... of course it could be the cyst on your ovary.... I had one ruptured and it was really painfull and bonus I didn't get my period for 2 months after that... your hormones change too sometimes... I would take the pregnancy test just to make sure or go talk wiht your doctor about it....Good luck
