2 Neg Hpts, 21 Days Late? Posted: 12-20-03 11:27am
Hello.
I took an hpt when I was 6 days late and
it was clearly negative.
Took another when I was 16 days late and
it was also clearly negative.
Now I am 21 days late.
I have never missed a period but am not
super regular either. I have been up to
10-12 days late before.
What could be causing this?
I know it is possible but what are the
chances I am pregnant after 2 neg hpts
taken so long after I should have started?
Thanks.
Marcie

Even though the hpts are coming up
negative, please don't discount the fact
that you could be pregnant.
Some women who become pregnant do not
produce enough of the hcg hormone (the
pregnancy hormone) to make an hpt
positive.
To get the best and accurate results,
consult your physician for a blood test.
Best wishes!

I definately agree with the previous post.
Negative tests don't mean you're not
pregnant. I would make an appointment to
be sure.

Yeah, those home tests usually do not
work. I had a friend who was four months
pregnant before her test came up positive.
And I had another friend who took three
that said she was pregnant and she wasn't.
They are right sometimes, but they are
definately not foolproof. So, you should
contact your doctor and have a blood test.

Well from my experience... I had missed
my period the first month so I took 2 test
both neg. So I wasl ike ok its just not
coming this month unusual but ok then the
second month still no period so took three
more tests all came back neg so I
scheduled an appt. With Dr....Then
finally missed the third and one week
later was my appt. Went to the doc to see
what was wrong cuz I was thinking sumthing
must be wrong with me since the test say
im not preg. But no period for three
months and sure enough she done two tests
and told me I was 13wks preg. So if you
dont start soon id go to the dr cuz u may
be preg after all .... Remeber its not
uncommon at all to get a false neg.

Hello to all. I too have a problem that I
could use help and advice with. Please
respond with any advice you may have.I am
22 years old and I have had very irregular
periods since I was 15. I have a 4 year
old son and in 2002 I had an abortion. I
have been having unprotected sex since
april and my last period was may 11. I've
taken at least eight pregnancy tests and
they've all come up negative. I have had
severe middle of the night heartburn,
frequent urination, uncomfortable
bloating, and very moody and sensitive. I
just want some advice as to what you guys
would do next.
