Hello.. you could be getting your period. If you don't ovulate you will not get your period. In order to get your period you need to ovulate because that is what causes your period. Since you don't have a regular cycle, it is hard to predict when you ovulate. Techinically they tell you about 14 days after the first day of your period. Mine was always induced and it was about 20 days which is a long time. Anyway two weeks after your expected ovualtion date is when you can take a pergnancy test. It you had a cycle last month then basically count 28 (if that is how your cycle runs) and you can take a test then.... Good Luck
