    4 Negative Pregnancy tests, (43 days after period was due )
    I am 18 years old. My period was do on the 8th of January and hasn't come yet. I have taken 4 pregnancy test, considering my sexual activity prior and all of them were negative. I have continued having sex. I thought maybe it was due to stress or just a change in hormones, or something, ANYTHING! Can I still be pregnant? Should I worry?

    What sort of pregnancy tests did you take? Where they all home pregnancy tests? Did you follow the directions exactly, making sure to use first morning urine?

    Are you using any form of birth control? If so, what type?

    It's possible that you are pregnant. If you're continuing to have sex, especially unprotected sex (even with protection pregnancy is possible), then if you're not already pregnant you'll likely be pregnant soon.

    Try another hpt. If that one's negative then it's time to go to the doctor for a blood test.

    I haven't been on any birth controls for years now. I took at home pregnancy tests, but I didn't take them during first mornin urine.

    Today though I felt some really intense cramps and even spotting. I do plan to go for a blood test. But, is it possible to have your period and still be pregnant?

    Some women can bleed throughout pregnancy and even mistake it as a period. It's not as uncommon as some people seem to think.

    If you're not using any birth control then there's a very good chance that you are pregnant, or that you'll get pregnant very soon.

    Testing with first morning urine is the most accurate. I would try taking another hpt and use first morning urine, see what it says and then go from there. :)
