How long can a pregnancy test show negative when actually pregnant?
Most home pregnancy tests should be accurate from around 2 weeks after ovulation (coinciding with the time your period is due). If it shows negative at this point and you still miss your period, wait another week and retest. Pregnancy tests test for a hormone called HCG which basically doubles every day in early pregnancy, so after around 3 weeks of negative testing, you are probably not pregnant. If in doubt go to the doctor and get a blood test which will prove for definite eitherway.
Can pregnancy detected if you have 4 days missed period?
Usually four days late is enough time to get a positive test. If the test is negative and your period doesn't start, retest in one week.
Can a pregnancy test give a false negative?
Yes a pregnancy test can show negative when you actually are pregnant. The most common false negative happens when there is not enough of the pregnancy hormone HGH to be detected as in early pregnancy. This is why some tests come with another test so that you may retest later. Concentrations of the hormone are higher and easier to detect when you first wake up before you drink anything or go to the bathroom.
Can you be pregnant if you have backaches headaches stomach disorders food cravings and sore breasts?
Yes you could be pregnant. If you have all those things happening you should have taken a pregnancy test. If negative wait a few days and retest if menses is still absent.(Reminder, it is possible to have menses and be pregnant, however such sypmtoms would usually be associated with PMS.) If still negative you should see a doctor anyway in case of ectopic pregnancy or other underlying medical issues.
If you take a pregnancy test when you are a week late but your cycles are always irregular and the test is negative but you are now 2 and a half weeks late should you retest would the test come back?
If you are getting other pregnancy symptoms, yes, take another test.
If you take a pregnancy test too early will it come out negative?
It may come out negative. The hormone that detects pregnancy, HCG, doesn't start getting secreted until the egg implants in the uterus (about 7-10 days after conception.) Every woman is different, and you may have ovulated later than you thought, so if the test is negative, wait a few days and retest. HCG levels double in the body every 48 hours. If you're still getting negative results, ask your doctor for a blood test (accurate from about 8-10 days after conception.)
What does a faint negative line mean on a equate pregnancy test?
If the negative line is faint it could mean that ur pregnant and its just too early to tell or it could mean that it was just that test. Either way i would retest in at least a day or two.
Missed period and negative test result?
False negatives are pretty common with home pregnancy tests. You should wait a few days and retest with first mornings urine or see a Dr for a blood test.
If you take a hpt during implantation bleeding can it still be negative?
Yes, it is possible to take a home pregnancy test during implantation bleeding and still get a negative result. This is because the levels of the pregnancy hormone hCG may not be high enough to be detected by the test at that early stage. It is recommended to wait a few days and retest if you think you may be pregnant.
