Can I Still Be Pregnant If The Pregnancy Test Is Negative?

Hi. My husband and I have been trying to conceive for only a month now. I am currently 5 days late on my period (I m NEVER late). I knew I probably wouldn t get pregnant right away, but I experienced mild cramping about a week before my period was supposed to start (i usually cramp about a day before my period) so I thought it could have been implantation cramping. I have also had some nausea, frequent urination, and increased appetite. I took a pregnancy test the day I was supposed to start and it was negative. I have taken one test every couple of days since, and I also took one this morning, all negative. I have read many people s situations online and they said that they didn t have a positive as late as three months into their pregnancy because some women habe lower hcg levels than others. Could I still be pregnant despite all these negatives?

Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.

Yes there are chances of pregnancy and pre menstural syndrome as well.
For confirmation
Go for serum beta Hcg .
Get your pelvic scan done. (to rule out why your periods are over due? whether it is due to pregnancy or something else)
> Visit your gynaecologist with your scan report.
If pregnancy is there then
Start folic acid for 1st three months. And Iron & Calcium supplements for rest of your duration of pregnancy.
Take balnace and healthy diet.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
