When Should The Test Be Taken To Confirm The Pregnancy?

Hi I have 28 days period cycle. I calculated my ovulation day thru ovulation calendar and had intercourse as advised. Now i am into 33rd day and had got no symptoms of periods. on my 27th day i felt watery in my vagina. We have checked for the pregnancy test and it showed negative 33rd day. I am a bit confused....Are there any possibilities for my pregnancy? If so when can i take my test? Kindly advice me

Hello dear
I understand your concern.
Delayed period is most common and important sign of the pregnancy.
As your period is delayed, there may be chance of the pregnancy.
As you did test on 33rd day of your cycle (5 days after delayed cycle), it will give false negative result (at this time HCG level is low and not detect by the pregnancy kit).
Urine pregnancy test detect the pregnancy 8-10 days after the missed period.
So go for urine pregnancy test with fresh morning urine sample after 4-5 days.
But at this time you can go for blood HCG to detect the pregnancy and detect the pregnancy even in first 7 days of the delayed period.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet and drink plenty of water
Hope this may help you
