hi,pouch in the abdomen can also occurs as a result of cortisone shots as it causes central fat accumulation.negative pregnancy test rules out pregnancy but to be on the safer side you can still repeat a urine pregnancy tests and these tests are highly sensitive and it is very unlikely to give a false negative result.take care.
