Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

You should repeat urine pregnancy test(UPT) after one week.Your symptoms may be due to pregnancy.
UPT may be false negative or weak positive in early days of pregnancy due to less amount of hCG in urine.
Urine pregnancy test depend upon hCG hormone in urine which is excreted only after fertilization of ovum.Fertilization process take some time.
However,Ultrasound of pelvis is the investigation of choice for confirmation of pregnancy.It can detect G-sac earliest.

Hope i have answered your query.
Take Care
