What Causes Delayed Menstruation And Negative Pregnancy Test?

default
Posted on Sat, 25 Jun 2016
Question: Hi there. I took a pregnancy test today, one of the early ones and it was negative. I know this may be a little too early, but I would be at least 7 to 13 days past ovulation. I hope this negative test is all I need.

Brief Answer:
Mostly accurate

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, happy to listen the test result.
Yes most likely you will not need another test and will get your periods in coming week.
But in case you miss your periods (less than 5% chances) then repeat a test after 1 week from today, and if that is negative then pregnancy is nowhere around.
Take care.

Well, that one time did the job. I took two pregnancy tests and they are both positive. Not sure what to do. I am numb.
