Brief Answer:
PREGNANCY LESS LIKELY

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
At 22 DPO, a pregnancy, is present, would definitely show up on the pregnancy test.
So , I am sorry to state that the possibility of a pregnancy is remote in your case.
It is not at all early to test, as in a cycle of follicular monitoring, the exact day of ovulation is known, so you can test for pregnancy as early as 16 - 18 days post ovulation.
Just to confirm, visit your gynecologist and go for an ultrasound scan or a blood B HCG test also.
The most possible explanation is that your periods have been delayed due to the effect of PCOD.
Take care.
Please feel free to ask for further clarifications.
