I took a test and it said negative, before I got my period not sure if I should take another... please help me?? I need an answer

Yes you absolutely can. Sometimes if your hormone level (usually projesterone) is not high enough at the time you would normally have your period you can have a period when pregnant. This is why we ask a patient when her last normal period was when calculating her due date.
Also, if your B-Hcg level (hormone produced by growning embryo) isn't high enough your urine pregnancy would be negative. Mainly this is due to very early or pre-implantation pregnancy, if the embryo is still making its way to the uterus or hasn't been implanted in the uterus long there isn't enough B-hcg being produced by it to make a pregnancy test positive.
Hope this helps! Look for other symptoms, nausea, breast tenderness or swelling, fatigue and retake the urine pregnancy test in a few weeks.
