Am I Pregnant Even Though All Tests Are Negative?
I got my mirena removed over 5 weeks ago. I have yet to start a period. Last week, an ultrasound tech was checking for cysts. I have one small cyst, but she said my endometrium was extremely thick and I could be in the very early stage of pregnancy. 6 tests including a blood test have come up negative, but i have all the symptoms. Am i pregnant?

Hello
Welcome to HCM
Thanks for posting your query. Only visualisation of endometrial thickness is not enough to diagnose it as pregnancy. A definitive gestational sac should be seen.
As all your blood tests have come as negative, I would advice you to undergo once more ultrasound scanning to rule out pregnancy . by doing this, your confusion gets nullified.
Hope this helps you.
Thank you
