welcome to Health care magic.
1.Generally after a missed period is good time to go for a urine pregnancy test.
2.A blood test for BHCG levels is week to 10 day earlier than the urine test.
3.There are false negative / positive up to 3% in urine pregnancy test.
4.It can be a late period this time, get a test again and there are related symptoms.
5.Then take an appointment and get the needful things done.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
