What Causes Missed Period Despite A Negative UPT?

The first day of my last period was on August 25, 2016. I did have unprotected sex almost every day of the week I was supposedly ovulating. A week after my first missed period I took a home pregnancy test and it came back negative. I took another test a week after and it came back negative again. I took a third test a week later and it came back negative. Two months later I took an at home bleach test and the bleach reacted instantly when I added my pee. So I went and bought another test and it came back positive, but then I realized it was an ovulation test instead of a pregnancy test. I read on it and ovulation tests can pick up on HCG (the hormone that determines pregnancy) and LH (the hormone that determines ovulation). I bought another pregnancy test and it came back negative. I haven t had my period in 13 weeks, so I doubt I m ovulating. Is there any possibility I could actually be pregnant?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello Dear. Sometimes Urine pregnancy tests with the strips may give false positive or false negative results due to some different antigenic reactions. To get a clear picture to know whether you are pregnant or not, visit a gynecologist who will do Ultrasonography of abdomen and visulise for fetal sac inside uterus. This will be a conclusive evidence and will solve all the doubts.

Hope i have answered your question. Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions. I ll be glad to help you.
All the best
