    Two negative pregnancy tests. Is it still possible I am pregnant?
    :confused: my period is due any day now and my doctor said a pee test would be accurate so I took my second pregnancy test and it was once again negative. But I just feel pregnant. And I keep getting headaches, dizzy spells, spotting, hot flashes. And I recently found out I have a yeast infection which I heard it was common for pregnant women to get them. But in any case could I still be pregnant?:confused:

    Anything is possible. You know, many times our intuition is more reliable than any pregnancy test.

    Have you been taking the pregnancy tests using first morning urine? If not, I would try again in the morning. Many tests, although the tests say differently, will not test positive until after you miss your period.

    It is possible to get a false negative. That is, the test says you're not pregnant when actually you are. It is "impossible" to get a false positive. The test looks for HGH, human growth hormone which is not present unless a person is pregnant.

    I thought this was true until last week. There are reasons for a false positive, they do happen. So, it is not impossible.
