Posted on Thu, 12 May 2016
Question: Good day,
I was suppose to get my period on Feb 27th and is now 3 days late. I had some brownish very light spotting for 3 days on the 22nd till 24th, but I took a pregnancy test today March 1st and it shows negative. My question is can that have been implantation and can I still be pregnant?

Brief Answer:
You are most likely not pregnant!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this missed period an all the inconveniences this has caused you. From your information and tests, it is unlikely to be pregnant as most uric pregnancy test would be positive by the time the missed period is reported. This is negative in your case. To be sure there is nothing we are missing out on here, please provide me with dates on your last menstrual period and any possible dates on which you had intercourse. I will also put these two together to see if there is anything else we should be working on. With the available information, pregnancy is very unlikely!

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.

Brief Answer:
You had intercourse on your fertile periods!

Detailed Answer:
HI,

You had intercourse during your fertile period. Not sure if you want to get pregnant or not. However, two negative tests are not really in favor of that. I will suggest that you follow through and repeat it in a week’s time. For now, stay calm and do no see any aggressive medical interventions as time will make the picture clearer.

I wish you well and keep me posted about this.
