Is Pregnancy Possible Despite A Negative Pregnancy Test Report?

I had unprotected sex on February 10,2018. The next day I started cramping but no bleeding. On the 16th, I took a pregnancy test because that’s what my doctor told me but it was negative. The next day on the 17th I started light bleeding but only lasted for 3 days. It wasn’t like my period because my period is usually heavier then how the bleeding was and my period usually lasts for 6 days. Could I still be pregnant?

Hello,

If bleeding is there that clearly rejects possibilities of pregnancy. Besides within 6 days card pregnancy test does not show positive results as HCG level are not raised by that time.

So, according to my opinion, if bleeding is there and next menstrual cycle is normal then no need to worry about pregnancy.

If next cycle is late or there is less bleeding again, do pregnancy tests or consult a gynecologist to rule out pregnancy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Hiren Hirpara
