Hello,
I have gone through the query and understood your concern. Home pregnancy tests read well when performed 3-7 days after the missed period with a fresh early morning sample of urine. This means that if at all you were pregnant, the result of the test would have been positive if performed properly. Your symptoms are more likely due to some hormone imbalance. Please see a specialist for a proper appraisal of the situation and plan further management. Hope this helps.
