Feeling Nauseous And Lower Back Pain, Light Periods. Pregnancy Test Negative. Chances Of Pregnancy?
I ve been having pregnancy symptoms (vomiting daily, nausea , lower back pain , napping more often, & my period this month was light & last 2.5 days). My cycle is regularly 5 days with a regular flow. However I took a hpt that was negative. However it was during this light period. Could that have effected the results? Could I be pregnant? When is the right time to test?

hi,
your scanty bleeding during periods could be because of hormonal disturbance or due to general factors like anemia or implantation bleeding,
so now you can go for blood test for pregnancy,
if at all pregnancy is there it can pickup,
you can also take one ultrasound for confirmation of pregnancy if not to rule out the cause for hypomenorrhea.
take care.
