Hello and Welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

If your period is delayed for one week than test again with urine HCG card test. Before 7 days of delayed period card can give false negative result. If after weeks pregnancy negative than USG pelvis scan advisable and per speculum examination needed. Consult gynecologist for examination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
