HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If the pregnancy tests are repeatedly negative then it must be due to another cause.
Delayed or irregular periods can be due to: (1) polycystic ovarian disease/syndrome
(2) emotional or physical stress or illness
(3)thyroid disease
(4)side effect of medication
(5)high levels of a hormone called prolactin
Blood tests for the thyroid , prolactin and other hormones would be needed to find the cause.
I hope this helps
