I know this is very weird, but has anyone else experienced this or know what would cause me to want to take pregnancy tests often even though I am not pregnant? Could it have something to do with constantly needing reassured about everything or happen from childhood trauma/abuse? I currently have an IUD, a one year old so not looking to be pregnant and haven't had a period since I've gotten the IUD so it's not even possible yet I still feel the need. I feel so crazy šŸ˜ž

      I think thereā€™s something about not getting a period that is super stressful! I didnā€™t get my period for 6 months when I was breastfeeding and it was so hard to keep track of everything.. but if it affects your mental health maybe you should get different contraceptive

      I think it's an obsessive/compulsive disorder related attribute.

      Well it could be anxiety. I interpret it as your brain knowing you aren't ready for another child so it's making you subconscious about it which leads to anxiety that you don't know you have. It could be anything really, for me it's mostly anxiety even though I got rid of mine a long time ago I still worry because of stories I hear.
