Can I Be Still Pregnant With Negative Pregnancy Test Results?

I had a baby back in Sept that was born at 17 weeks due to preterm labor and incompetent cervix. Since then I have been tracking my cycles which range from the lowest (last cycle) of 28 days to the longest of 38 days. The average is 35. Today is day 46 and still no sign of a period. I have taken several pregnancy tests all with negative results. I haven t had any hard core symptoms of pregnancy but I didn t with my first either. Is there still a chance that I could be pregnant or if all the tests have been negative this far is it most likely something else?

Hallow Dear,

Gradually your menses are becoming irregular. It is likely that you have developed hormonal imbalance.

If several pregnancy tests are negative, you are not pregnant. Still for further confirmation you may get Beta hCG test done on your blood and also get ultrasonography done. Both these tests will provide you evidences of your pregnancy status. If it is confirmed that you are not pregnant, you may take some Progesterone preparation like Deviry for 5 days (with advice from your Gynaecologist). After discontinuing the pills, you should get withdrawal bleeding within 4-7 days.

After you get the menses, please report to your Gynaecologist and get investigated for the irregular menses. You could be having Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS).

I hope this helps you.
