Hi,
Thanks for the query.
If the insemination was done around the period of ovulation, there is possibility of pregnancy.
But the success of achieving pregnancy due to insemination depends on many factors.
Urine pregnancy test kit may not detects early pregnancy sometimes.
So, better to wait for one week.
If you do not periods even after one week, repeat the urine pregnancy test.
Possibly by that time it can detect the pregnancy accurately.
If the test again shows negative result, the possibility of pregnancy is less.
Then you can consult gynecologist once and take tablets to induce withdrawal bleeding.
Take care.
