I am a 31 year old married lady with no children.From last few months, i have been having little irregular periods and they also last for 2-3 days as compared to my earlier periods which used to be 4-5 days.in march i had my period on 13th-15th march. Then it was 12th apr-15th apr and my last period was on 7th may-9th may.Me and my husband got intimate on 15th,17th& 20th may. I took a pregnancy test on 7th may and it was negative. As on 11th Jun, my period is yet to come. Is it possible that i may be pregnant? When should i take the next pregnancy test to be absolutely sure.I am trying to conceive.

Dear member,
Thanks for writing.
The pregnancy test will usually be positive in a few days of missing period.
If you are anxious then you can also consider a blood test for pregnancy.
As you are planning to conceive try ovulation detection kits that shows the ovulation day . Timed intercourse will help better conceiving success.
Thanks
