Period 4 days late with a negative pregnancy test
My menstrual cycle is 4 days late. I have been having a lot of backache and abdomen pain. I have been under a lot of stress lately, especially wondering if I’m pregnant. So I purchased an EPT pregnancy test. Within 1 minute it showed 1 line which means you are not pregnant. Do you think this is precise? I also have been taking Fema Fresh, a feminine capsule, that helps females feel fresh and a few times I have used the Norforms feminine deodorant suppositories. Can these products affect my cycle as well as stress? Andrea
Andrea,
I don’t believe Fema Fresh or Norforms Suppositories would affect your cycle. Too much stress definitely can. However, don’t base everything on one urine pregnancy test, especially one taken only 4 days after your period was late. Though EPT pregnancy tests are known for being accurate (they advertise a 99% accuracy rate) and can be taken the day you expect your period, I would still recommend you take the pregnancy test again. The amount of the pregnancy hormone hCG, which is what makes urine pregnancy tests work, can vary based on the individual. After having your period late for one week, I’d recommend repeating the test in the morning when your hCG levels would be highest.
If the results are still negative, set up an appointment with your family doctor and see if something else is causing the backaches and abdominal pain. There very well may be something else which is causing an adverse reaction in your body.
Best of luck,
Hannah
About 2 weeks before my period was about to start I started feeling a little sick to my stomach. Nothing to strong, but upset. My period was suppose to start 4 days ago. I took an Ept test yesterday and it was negative. I feel really light cramping, bloated and tender breasts. My husband and I have been trying to have a child for 2 years, so every month has been so disappointing. Is there a reason why my period is late? If I’m not pregnant, is there a possiblity something is wrong?
Thanks,
