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.
