Hello,
I would like to ask you when you took the test, how many days after the sex and if you had menstruation during this time. The test is indicated to take after 9-12 days after having sex. (Cause B HCG start to increase in the 9-th day in blood, and shows in a measurable level in urine in 12-th day. Nausea is one of sign of pregnancy in the first trimester due to the high level of B HCG. But in your case I can not say for sure that you are pregnant cause I don't have all the necessary information. I don't think that the level of HCG is low because you haven't had sex for very long period. I will suggest you to take another test of pregnancy. Ad if it is still negative and your menstruation are interupted and you still experience nausea, I would suggest an Ultrasound.
I wish my answer was helpful to you!
Best Regards!
