Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for sharing your health concern with us.

I have gone through your query and would like to offer some information.

Home pregnancy tests read well when performed 3-7 days after the missed period. In the current scenario, you may have missed an early pregnancy if the test has been performed too early, more so since you are experiencing spotting.

The ideal course of action in the current scenario is to get the estimation of serum beta-hCG titers and follow up with a pelvic sonogram preferably in the trans-vaginal route. Further management can be planned accordingly.

Hope I have clarified your query. Please let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Shanti.V.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing back.

In view of your symptoms, I suggest further evaluation. In spite of the negative pregnancy tests, you can get a proper clinical evaluation and get a sonogram to detect the cause and plan further management.

Hope this helps. Please feel free to contact for further clarifications. I will be happy to help.

Regards,
Shanti.V.
