Can you get a negative pregnancy test your entire pregnancy?

Answer 1

It is possible but not likely. There could be a few possibilities. It was not a very accurate test. You did not do it right. Or it could be a little to early for the particular test you took, and the hormones are not in your urine. A store bought pregnancy test will not defintely tell you if you are pregnant in the early months only a trained professional can.

Answer 2

A negative test could also be the result of a phantom pregnancy. A phantom pregnancy is where you basically fool your mind and body into thinking it is pregnant. You will still experience pregnancy symptoms but you are not actually pregnant; it is al psychological Some women have even been able to lactate during a phantom pregnacny. The causes of a phantom pregnancy are either paranoia of being pregnant or having an extreme desire to become pregnant. There are several things that can contribute to a negative pregnancy test even if you are pregnant. Some medications can give you a false negative, the timing of the test can affect the results. If you did not follow directions properly; if you let the test sit for too long the results may read negative after a while. It is important to read the results within the amount of time given on the instructions of that particular pregnancy test you bought. If you did not perform the test properly (example: you drank a lot of fluids before taking the test, which can dilute your urine). Etc To ensure the best results: Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results Take the test no more than 1 day before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period, the percentage of accuracy is very low. urinate for as long as possible on the foam-like strip Check the results in the window frame of time suggested by the instructions of the pregnancy test.

Answer 3

Yes unfortunately. In early pregnancy there may not be enough of certain hormones in your body for the test to be positive.

Answer 4

No. A pregnancy test measures the amount of hCG in your blood/urine. hCG is the hormone which sustains your pregnancy.
