Are There Pregnancy Chances Even After Negative Home Pregnancy Tests?

Hi, my period is due tomorrow but all I have been having is a slight reddish discharge when I wipe after going to the toilet for the last few days. I also have slight cramps, a very watery mouth and tender breasts. A home pregnancy test thismorning (before my period due date) was negative? Could I still be pregnant?

Hello,
Welcome to HCM and thanks for asking your question. I can understand your problem and would like to tell you that pregnancy test will be positive after 35 days of last period and sometimes its very mild positive that cannot be properly interpreted.
As per your details, you have the symptoms like early pregnancy. So i would recommend you to do a fresh repeat pregnancy test after one week with early morning urine sample. cramps and tender breasts and slight reddish discharge can occur in early pregnancy.
So again telling you to do a repeat test or do ultrasound to detect a sac to confirm pregnancy. Best luck and feel free to ask any more of your queries directly to me anytime.
