ok this is really odd, I asked before about pregnancy and stuff, and I took a hpt and it was neg, so I forgot all about it until a week ago when I realized that I have not had a preiod and it was almost the end of the month, so my question is could I have gotten a false neg or was it too early for the hpt to find my hgc levels?

Yes, it could have been to early.
There is always a chance of having a false negative but no such thing as a false positive.
I know some home pregnancy test say you can test 5 days before your period or a day after your missed period, BUT
with both of my kids, it took 3 weeks before it showed up on a test.
So I would advise to get a pregnancy test with two in them. Take it and if it still says negative then wait another week and then take the other one.
Good luck.

I took a pregnancy test when I was about 5 weeks pregnant and it came up negative... a week later I took another and it was positive. I guess sometimes women get false negatives because there is not enough hormone in their urine, but a blood test from the doctor would probably be 100% accurate at this point. They say that some HPT can detect pregnancies 5 days before a missed period, but in the fine print it usually says something a long the lines of results not typically accurate at that point etc... good luck

Yes you can get a false negative early on in your pregnancy the hormones may not have built up yet. Take a blood test to be sure. Try planned parenthood they may do it for free.

yes...alot of ppl do get a false neg preg test!....because they are testing to early! which does sound like you did!...Take another test in a couple days ( tests from the dollar store work wonderful) to be sure and if its still a neg. then you should wait another week and test again!...it should tell you for sure by week 2 after your missed period..sometimes alot sooner!...you would just be less disappointed if you take it when you know the result will be more accurate!
