What Causes Delayed Menstruation And Negative Pregnancy Test?
Ok so Saturday the 23rd marks two weeks after having unprotected sex. I am supposed to start my period today the 21st and I only lightly spotted. I went to the store got a test that was 88 cents ( two of them) and it was the kind that you have to use a dropper for the sample. Both said negative. So am I actually starting my period ? or did I test too early ? Do you think I m pregnant or not ?

Hi
Pregnancy after unprotected sex is possible if you were unsafe and can best be confirmed by a well done pregnancy test.A negative pregnancy test if well done 2 weeks after unprotected sex excludes pregnancy.Menstruation usually starts with spotting and progressively increases before reducing in volume of flow.I will say you just observe how flow will be in the coming days.If it stops, then pregnancy is a possibility and you will need an expert to run another pregnancy test for you.
Hope my answer will help you
Best regards
