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. 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 1-2 days 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 * wait for the results!

You may be expierencing implantation bleeding, and may be pregnant. Try taking a home pregnancy test, if it tests negative give it a few days and if the symptoms dont go away, then consult with a doctor, because the hormone that is present during pregnancy may not be high enough to be detected by a home pregnancy test and it is best to get a blood test to find out for sure.
