Hi thanks for using HCM.
Since you were on patch and all the four tests are negative you won't be pregnant. So need not to worry for pregnancy.
I advice you to regularize using patch and maintain the correct dates. As the variation in timings in terms of days may lead to pregnancy. In those time you can use other method like using condoms (barrier method).
If the symptoms persists then you can consult your doctor for examination once and you can get done blood HCG level to diagnose/rule out the pregnancy.
Wish you good health.
Regards

Hi there! Welcome to H.CM.Forum!
The symptoms you mentioned are mostly because of the patch itself. Since you have not been regular with the patch, and had intercourse during the "possibly unsafe" time in your period, there could be a chance that you are pregnant. Why dont you go and meet your gynecologist and she will assess and conduct a pregnancy test and then confirm. If found to be pregnant, you will have to remove the patch as soon as possible.
Good luck!
