Again, if a PREGNANCY was stopping your period, it would trigger a positive on a pregnancy test. Your period stops because your body makes the hormone HCG. This is the exact same hormone that pregnancy tests detect, and in very small amounts. If you had enough of the hormone in your system to stop your period, there's plenty to trigger a positive.

If you're getting negatives, chances are your period has stopped because of another reason besides pregnancy.
