    Belly swollen and breasts getting bigger but test negative.
    I have taken 3 pregnancy tests, but my belly continues to swell out, my breasts are getting bigger and I have gained about 5 lbs. What is this and what should I do?

    You need to go into more detail. Have you missed a period? Are you on any form of birth control? How old are you? etc...

    Are you taking the HPTs using first morning urine? That is a very important step.

    If the HPTs continue to be negative and you have missed your period it is time to make a doctor's appointment to find out if you are pregnant.

    I am on the depo shot. I haven't had a period since I got on it 4 months ago. I have taken them using first morning urine so I don't know what the deal is. Maybe I'm retaining water. Oh I am 24 years old

    Depo can cause loss of periods. This is a very common side effect, as well as weight gain. Chances are you are just experiencing side effects from the Depo.
