Do you suspect you are pregnant? If so, a pregnancy test can give you the answer one way or another. For many women, the two week wait to know if they are pregnant just adds more anxiety to deciding the best time to take a pregnancy test. One of the most important things to know if you are confused about when you should take a home pregnancy test is that you are more likely to get a negative result if it’s done too early.

Hello Ayia, if you are 10 days late it is a good time to take a pregnancy test with or without signs of pregnancy.
I’m officially 11 days late last period was November 9- November 14 on December 14 I took a pregnancy text & it came back negative I’m currently unsure on what to do next I made a doctors appointment but that won’t be until February…. should I retest
Hello Nortaisha, thankfully your doctor will be able to do a blood test to determine if you are pregnant or not and other tests if further assessment is needed.
Hi this is my 36th day since my lnmp,pregnancy test negative. I have used some ecp for a week somewhere within these days and I have currently started feeling lower back pain, stomach cramps, breast tenderness which lasted for one day.over and above I experience cervical and uterine pain during sex this time, could be that it implantation or I am bout to see my periods? No changes in appetite no nausea no vomiting. What could it possibly be?
Hello Aud, until something actually happens we will not know. You can wait on just to see if your period will return. If not, take a pregnancy test 7 days after you’ve missed it.
Hey there, so I haven’t been taking birth control for over a year now To get my cycle back up to normal for when I was ready to conceive. My last period started on October 27th 2017 and ended on October 31st 2017. Then my period was due between November 26-29th and now I am 8-11 days late (i track my cycles with a period tracker called Flo) I did take a pregnancy test on December 1st which came out negative. I am not having any symptoms of pregnancy other than I noticed I have a heighten sense of smell as well as I am constantly eating chocolate, like all day every day I cannot get enough which is super unlike me as I never eat chocolate. I have been have little tiny streaks of blood on toilet paper when I wipe after I pee. Could this be due to being pregnant? I am freaking out because this has come on so quickly and I hope this is a Christmas miracle!
Another thing that might help is that some times my cycle is 28 days and the longest it has been was 36 days and based on everything I am on day 41 now.
Hello Alexandra, it is a good time to retest for pregnancy if negative ans your period has not returned then see your doctor.

Hi, I was expecting my period to come at the end of October the 26th 17. But No, so on the 1st of November I get brown discharge till the 3rd and then the 4th I bled a little and it was only when I wiped. And then gone. And my periods last 5-6 days and this is the first I have ever experienced this. I’m always regular on my periods. And today 11-13-17. Still no period and to scared to do a HPT due to the fact I’m scared for a Negative response. But I do have a Dr apt 11-17-17 so yeah just hoping for a miracle! But what do you ladies think??? Anyone in the same boat??

I had sex on the 31st of October and its only been 5 days but food that I used to eat, makes me sick and nauseous. I’m cramping, ligheaded and get overly hot out of nowhere. My breast don’t hurt but my nipples hurt bad for a day, there’s no spotting. Yesterday I had thick white mucus come out of my vagina and earlier I had a liquid white discharge come out. My period is supposed to come the 17th of November. Could I be pregnant?
