Im 5 days late with a Negative test

Question

I am 5 days late on my period, and tood a test at the doctor today and it was negative. Was it too soon to test? Could I still be pregnant. We did it alot around my ovulation dates.

Ive been having really bad craming and lower back pain since the day of my missed period but no sign of it! I get tested for UTI and that was neg too.

Answer 1

you should test an hpt first and if negative go to the doctor for a blood test :) good luck!!!! you probably hit a good day around ovulation, you can also ask doctors online for free about this, try this website, FertilityTies.com

good luck!

Answer 2

ummm! stop worrying, this can also delay your cycle.

Answer 3

Hey!

I really think you don't have too much to worry about.

Unfortunately, our periods can be affected by a number of things: diet, stress, excersice, etc.

Have you had any recent changes in your food? started working out? maybe been fighting with your partner or had any changes at work? These things can all lead to a change in your cycle.

As silly as it seems, sometimes even worrying about being pregnant can cause changes in your cycle!

Also, usually a positive result on a pregnancy test would not show after only 5 days past your period. i say give it a week and if, at that time you still have not gotten your period, take another test, or see yuor doctor.

Birth control pills can help to regulate your period if it turns out you are in the clear and also help to prevent scares like this in future!

take care!

I've been as late as 4 days before and if finally came. Anything can distrupt your cycle. Changing your diet, or if you weren't active before and you're now working out it could make it late. Also stress (even the stress of worry about this very issue) could make it even later. You just need to relax. You're probably fine. However, if it doesn't come in another day or so I'd make an appointment with your OBGYN, she may put you on BC to regulate your periods.

When I'm late, it never fails, I'll invite my boyfriend over for a romantic night together and VOILA! It magically appears. It's like my body knows I want s*x, and just totally ruins the moment.

Edited to add: When I'm late I usually still get the cramps like it's already started. I keep alleve on me at all times. Works very well for pain relief. For the back pain, and stomach pain, I use a heating pad.

Answer 5

Take another test to be sure...but my period for no reason was a week late and i freaked thought i was pregnant and i wasnt...you might just be stressing too much or you might be lacking sleep or you might just be late...

Answer 6

It's much more likely that you're just late.  That can happen.  If you were pregnant, it seems to me that a test would have shown that.  

Answer 7

i dont knoe, but i concieved and still got my period the day it was due.

its been two weeks, and i knoe im pregnent, but the tests are neg..

give it a week or so n try agaqin?

good luck

Answer 8

Well menstruation can be normally irregular. I think the test would have shown a positing if you were pregnant.
