Is Negative Pregnancy Test 44 Days After Intercourse Conclusive?
Question: she did HPT again after 44 days from sex,it again came back negative..so is it completely sure that she is not pregnant?..mam she is having a pain in her right ribs..what could be it?
Brief Answer:
You can be sure that she is not pregnant.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
A negative pregnancy test 44 days after the unprotected sex rules out the pregnancy. You need not worry. The pain in the ribs is not related. It can be a minor muscle pain that will subside with rest and mild pain killers or a hot compress.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

1)Mam its paining only in her bone(below her right boobs in the ribcage) when it is pressed,otherwise there is no pain..
2)Mam 44 days after sex is a long enough time to be detectable in urine pregnany test in case of pregnancy if at all there was ny chance,isn't it mam?
3)So mam that incident will not cause any threat of pregnancy in further cycles unless we get intimate?
4)Mam if her coming periods gets preponed postponed or missed with variation in flow its not due to that act unless we get intimate again?
5)Mam what is the sensitivity of preganews?..0-5 miu/cc means not pregnant,5-25 means equivocal and 25 and above means pregnant..mam so what is the sensitivity of preganews?..i gs its 20 miu/cc..so 44 days after sex its negative means,its less than 20 miu/cc or less than 5?
Kindly answer to these mam in details..

Brief Answer:
Muscle pain likely.
Detailed Answer:
1. Since the pain is more on pressure it is a bone or muscular pain. Rest and mild pain killers will help.
2. 44 days is a long enough time to detect a pregnancy on urine test. There is no chance of pregnancy if the test is negative.
3. No. You will have to be intimate again for conception.
4. The variation in cycle length is due to hormonal changes and not due to the act you had.
5. Sensitivity of preganews is 20miu/cc. A negative test means the level is less than 20 miu/cc.
Regards.

Brief Answer:
Details below.
Detailed Answer:
1. The lady is pregnant only if the levels rise above 25 miu/cc. If the levels are lesser she is not pregnant. Lower levels do not suggest a pregnancy. The levels cannot be assessed by a urine test. You need to get a blood test done to know the exact levels. Your friend is not pregnant as her levels are less than 25.
2. The levels can increase if she conceives after any sexual activity.
3. These homeopathic medicines do not affect the pregnancy test results.
4. The implantataion bleeding happens 7-8 days after the sexual activity. It never starts after 3 days.
5. I have given the detailed answers to the best of my knowledge. I hope you understand these well.
Regards.

Ok mam thanx for sharing ur valueable knowledge..
1)Suppose the levels are between 0 and 20miu/cc after 44 days from sexual activity as HPT is negative,now without any sexual activity will it increase or decrease or remain same?if it doesnot decrease or remain same,what does it mean?
2)Mam will Blood Hcg give negative result too now?..because blood hcg is done when periods are missed,but she didnot miss her period..22nd July activity wl give negative result too now?Will the blood hcg give accurate result of that 22nd July event though her periods are not missed?
3)So she is not pregnant and will not get pregnant unless again we engage in sexual intimacy?
4)Thanx a lot mam for making me understand and reassuring me..I wl be grateful to u forever..kinldy answer to these in details..thanx a lot mam..:)

Brief Answer:
Details below.
Detailed Answer:
1. It is difficult to predict which way the levels will go. Ideally the levels should decrease to below 5 in the absence of pregnancy. Below 5 is the normal level of HCG in a female.
2. Blood HCG will give accurate results. The levels will be less than 5.
3. Yes. I have already told it at least 15 times.
Regards.
