Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic
If pregnancy test is negative then it is unlikely that you are pregnant. The delay in periods may be due to some hormonal disturbance or stress which needs to be properly investigated before giving any treatment. It would be ideal if you repeat the pregnancy test after few days to be completely sure. Take care.
