Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion the delayed period with scanty bleeding needs to rule out pregnancy.As the
test is negative the chances of pregnancy are rare.I suggest you to repeat the test after a week.If the repeat rest is also negative the pregnancy is ruled out.And the abnormal period can be due to hormonal imbalance due to stress or any.But if this sort of abnormal period continues every month then thyroid abnormalities, stress,overweight or obesity should be checked and treated.Nothing to worry.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
