If you never had a positive test there is no reason to suspect a chemical pregnancy, so I assume it is just a heavy/weird AF.

I agree with luv. If you never had a bfp, there is no reason to suspect miscarriage. Cycles change from month to month, as does PMS, so it just sounds like you had a heavy period this month. I've had periods so heavy I thought I was going to bleed to death, but whenever I've been pregnant I've always had a bfp and zero spotting or any type of bleeding.

Thank you ladies!

I think my biggest reason of concern is because I have never been late and I'm 34 and I had so many symptoms that I had never felt in my life. And a BFP isn't possible if there was no implantation so I would proactively never know. But then I don't know if implantation would ever even start so late, like 17,18,19 DPO.

Thank you!!!!! I will update if I learn something new. I wrote my dr and can't wait for a reply this week.

No, implantation can't occur at 17+ dpo. That's due to the fact that if you haven't conceived, your progesterone begins to fall which causes your period to start. If you're not pregnant, your period will start by 17 dpo, with 12-16 dpo being typical. Implantation occurs between 6-12 dpo, with 9 being avg.

So I mentally let go of all this because it consumed me however I thought I would state that I think something did happen, like the egg was fertilized but it didn't implant. I say this because it's been a month and the physical ovary/nipple/PMS cramp feelings I felt for 3 weeks straight, to being 5 days late with my period for my first time, to the filling up a tampon in one hour, to then feeling a chemical mental release a few hours later where peeing 12-15 times in a morning became a must to then totally evaporating a few days after the bleeding stopped where peeing so much went away completely, to then the latest of not ovulating, which will be my first time not ovulating in easily 10 years as I always have that egg yolk stringy ovulation cm experience has disappeared this month. Something happened. As of today I'm 21 days past the start of my period and no ovulation yet. That's abnormal for me. Very very abnormal. And I now feel like I'm going to get my period: unusually early. Ah!
