Is it possible that your iron levels are low. That was how a friend of mine found out she was pregnant. The Pill is not 100% foolproof for some women. I also know of another woman who had a tubal litigation but still got pregnant as one of the clips they used came undone. They didn’t cut and knot her tubes because of her age despite her having problems during her first pregnancy.

How did you go with this one as I was experiencing the same thing a while back. I went to the GP and did a blood test, I was low in iron not pregnant. Hope it all turned out well for you. But if you’re in the pill you likely don’t ovulate as that’s the point of the pill, unless it’s been ineffective

Blood test can confirm, how did you go has been couple of weeks

If you’re on the pill normally I would suggest you wait for a few days and see if it stress as others have suggested. Given your symptoms including pain I would go to your GP now, Unfortunately there could be other issues. A minor one could be low iron levels

It could be your body being out of sync. Stress can also contribute. I’d see my GP just for the peace of mind

Stress and over thinking can cause late period. Sometimes test needs more time after missing period to get “correct” answers.

It’s possible to be a false negative however you could retest in a few days or if concerned ask the doctor to do a blood test which can be more sensitive

Yes, I struggled the first time for a positive go get a blood test done

You might need to visit the gp for a blood test. That may give you more conclusive information?

It sounds unlikely that you’re pregnant, but it might be best to get a GP test to be sure.

Try an early detection pregnancy test like clearblue with the actual ‘pregnant’ or ‘not pregnant’ indicator. I found this to be accurate. Also, depending upon what pill it is (normal or mini pill) this would make a difference too – I was told by a dr that with the normal pill obviously it is best to take it the same time every day but that an hour or two here isn’t the end of the world, however, the mini pill you do need to take on time or it can be ineffective. Best bet is to visit the GP for a blood test.

I have false negatives before. All 3 out of the same box. Maybe try a digital test

Yeah either that or your period is just off?

Could be a false negative but could also be a negative. Your gp will do a blood test anyway to determine. Pregnancy testes are early detection these days but seeing as you got a faint line at 5/6 weeks – you possibly would have to wait a bit longer if you are pregnant.

I would wait for a few more days and re do the test or go to GP
Good luck

A check up and reassurance and advice from a GP at this time might be a wise way to go.

I think you may be a bit early for a pregnancy test cause you’re only 8days late with your period. I wouldn’t waste my money buying more test at the moment. Just wait for 1 or even better 2 more weeks, then do another test. There may not be enough HCG in your body to give a positive test result yet. Pregnancy tests vary in their sensitivity (how soon they can detect HCG and what level of HCG needs to be present). You can find information on the packaging about how sensitive your test is.

I would think a positive result would be showing up my now but false negatives are possible. Perhaps check in with your doctor. All the best ????

It could be that you’re too early in your pregnancy to give a result. But I doubt it because today’s pregnancy tests can detect from the earliest of stages. Best bet is to visit your GP for a check up

If it was me this was happening to I would be making an appointment with my doctor rather than asking an online forum for advice. With everything going on in our lives at present it could be that stress is playing a part in your cycle.
