Could I Still Be Pregnant Despite Having Sore Breast Along With Negative UPT?
Hi, my period is late by 5 days, I ve been active and that was over a month ago, and I got my period a week after... My boobs are sore, and I m having strange cravings for fatty foods. Also my urine smells like cat pee, I ve taken 3 tests and they ve been negative, but my period still isn t here, what should I do?
Hello and welcome to HCM, A negative urine pregnancy test rules out pregnancy. However, it should be remembered that urine pregnancy test becomes positive 10-14 days after conception. Delay of periods is common and can occur in healthy menstruating women, common causes being stress, anemia etc. Soreness of breasts occurs under the influence of progesterone hormone. Progesterone hormone is secreted during the second half of the menstrual cycle or during the pre-menstrual phase. You can wait for your periods for couple of days before consulting your doctor.
Thanks and take care Dr Shailja Puri
