Can I be pregnant if the EPT says NO?

Question

I am 2 weeks late on my period, dont feel like I should even be starting. I have taken cheap tests and expensive tests from the store and they say NOT PREGNANT. What could be wrong with me?

Answer 1

Go get a blood tst sometimes we don't produce enough HCG to show up on a HPT.

Answer 2

Two weeks late does not necessarily mean you're pregnant. It can be other things too, like too much stress. On the other hand, it was my personal experience that when I was "late" I tried over the counter pregnancy tests. they all said "no". Finally I went to the Dr. a regular general practitioner not a gynocologist. He did a preg. test and said "no" also. Now, four weeks late, I go back again. He did the same test, even felt around and said "no". Well he was wrong! The next week I saw a "gyno" dr. and she said "yes, you are eight weeks along" Sometimes the HCG (pregnancy hormone) is not at a level of detection by these tests.So my advice is be a bit careful as far as drinking or smoking, drugs, etc. because you could be and you wouldn't want to jeopardize the new baby. After my dr. told me i wasn't pregnant i had a glass of wine with a dinner out days later. My daughter had some slight deformities of her ear and eyelid. Now I know they say that one glass "wouldn't have done any harm" but if I had known, I know I would't have had even that one glass.

Hi there!!

A lot of times home pregnancy tests can give a false positive. Most likely you are pregnant, but the tests aren't picking up the hormone pregnancy in your urine for some reason. I would reccomend you making an appointment with your doctor and having your blood taken and tested. The blood tests are 100% positive and the doctor will be able to let you know within the hour for sure whether or not you're pregnant. Hope this helps and a possible congratulations!! :)

There is probably nothing wrong with you, but to be sure you should go to a doctor. It depends on a lot of things, if you really want to be pregnant it could be stress that is keeping your period from coming, or you could actually be pregnant some of the symptoms are:
Sore breast
nausea
excessive urination
missed period
hunger
tiredness

You may have some, all or none of these if you are pregnant. Also you may have your timing off and it could be too early to get a positive test. Best bet is to go to the doctor just to be sure:) sending baby dust your way ;)

Answer 5

That happened to me , 2 weeks after your missing period tests should be picking up something, anything it is not likely you are pregnant.

I had a couple of periods just completely missing, why?, I have no idea but it happened and of course I freaked out. if you are on the pill that could be a reason. If you are very upset about it make an appointment with your doctor, tell the receptionist you think you might be pregnant and they'll get you in right away.

Answer 6

the best thing i can tell u girl is go to the doctors and get it checked out. Most girls start late i know i have once and it scared me then like i started like the next few days. Most EPT tests are not right all the time.

Answer 7

Stress, changing birthcontrol, pregnancy. You should definitely get to a doctor for a blood test either way. It's not good to be two weeks late if you're not pregnant.

Answer 8

Yes, Your HCG level may not be high enough to detect. when you concieved plays a part.The level can double every two days. So I would retest and then if you get a negative see your doc for a blood test.

Answer 9

it took a while for me 2 get a positive on a hpt (with my first pregnacy)so when i did get a positive i was further gone than i thought it all depends on how high ur hormones r

Answer 10

YES YOU CAN. GO TO THE DOCTOR AND LET THEM TEST YOU. MY PERIOD WAS TWENTY DAYS LATE LAST MONTH. I FIGURED IT WAS A CYCLE CHANGE FOR ME. YOU GO BE SURE BECAUSE I KNEW FOR SURE BECAUSE I AM SEXUALLY ACTIVE.
