Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum.
I have gone through your Query & I really appreciate your concern about the problem you are facing.

As a physician I would like to tell you that you should take a second UPT after 7 more days. As the UPT is based on Hcg Hormone amount in urine. It is less in early period of pregnancy. Thus you should take a second UPT and if it comes out negative again, you should visit your attending physician.


Thanks for Trusting & Posting your Query on this forum.
Hope this will help you. Feel free to ask any further question.
Have a nice Day.

Regards,
Dr.Abhijeet
