Brief Answer:
Can be due to hormonal changes.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The delay in periods by 9 days with a negative urine pregnancy test is likely to be due to a mild hormonal imbalance.
Other than hormonal disturbance - stress, tensions on personal or professional front, unaccustomed exercise, rapid changes in your weight, ingestion of hormonal medications, late nights, erratic eating, changes in climate or altitude, travelling - all these can interfere with your cycles.
It would be good to get your TSH ( thyroid hormone level ) checked, as thyroid disturbances can also delay periods.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

Is there ever a situation when you start clomid for the first time, your doctor said you ovulated because of progesterone serum 22, you have ALL pregnancy symptoms ( i have had two pregnacies) peiod is late by 9 days, had a spot of brown blood that went away, negative home tests and you are still PREGNANT? Is this still far fetched .

Brief Answer:
Blood test will help in confirming or ruling out pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
Being pregnant even with a negative urine test is less likely. It can happen in early pregnancy or chemical pregnancy. A blood test will help in confirming this.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
