Negative Pregnancy Test. Have Pregnancy Symptoms. Worried About Miscarriage Or Pregnancy

I've been feeling symptoms of pregnancy and I took some home pregnancy test but they were negative. My cousin took a few and they were negative but she ended up being 20 weeks. I was worried and went to a lab test place and got my blood taken. My results were inclusive, I don't know what this means, I'm worried I am pregnant or miscarrying.

Hi,
Thanks for the query.

Urine pregnancy test kits sometimes may not detect early pregnancy.
Blood test is better compared with urine test.
Refer:http://srsree.blogspot.in/2012/05/pregnancy-tests.html
You didn't mention what was your beta HCG levels in blood test.
If you are not sure about the report, once again go for quantitative blood test.
This can give better idea. or
If it is one to two weeks over after crossing your expected date of periods, consult gynecologist and go for ultrasound.
For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

UPT is a test detect hormones which is excreted in urine during pregnancy. Early morning sample is better to perform test.
Follow the correct steps as given in UPT kit label to perform a test.
You can get USG abdomen and pelvis done to check for sac in uterus, which confirms pregnancy.
Consult your doctor for examination and management.
Hope I answered your question. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries.
Wish you good health. Take
care.

Regards
Dr. Vidya
