Could you still be pregnant if a pregnancy test came out negative but your period is 5 days late?In: Pregnancy Tests |
[Edit] |
Taking care of yourself with baby on the way.
According to a study I read, twin pregnancies, presence of ketones in your urine, and dehydration, amongst other things, may produce a false negative result. It is not that uncommon and the 99% effective rate for pg tests only means that in properly ph balanced urine, pregnancy was accurately detected 99% of the time. That does NOT mean that 99% of all pregnancies are detected. So, my advice is to maybe ask for an ultrasound if you really believ you are pregnant.
Answer
It's possible that the test was defective or you haven't produced enough of the hormone for the test to read yet. But it's also possible you are having a late period this month. I am normally very regular with my periods and I was a week late the last two months. And I'm not pregnant. Wait a few more days and take another test. If you still aren't sure or haven't started your period, it might be a good idea to go see a doctor.
Answer
Yes. I took a test after 1 week and it was negative, then 2 days later I took another test and there was a faint line there. I took a blood test and it was confirmed that I was pg, but very low hcg's. I dont have my 1st doc's appt. until July 1st,wish me luck!! :)
