Hi Ms. Crystal,
Home pregnancy tests read well when performed with a fresh early morning sample of urine 3-7 days after the missed period. If you have done the tests as above, it is likely that you may not be pregnant. Yet, it is better to get a definite confirmation through an estimation of the serum beta-hCG titres and also a trans-vaginal sonogram. If negative, you could be having a transient hormonal disturbance which can be easily corrected by giving a kick-back to the ovaries using hormones for withdrawal. Hope this helps.
