    Could I be pregnant?
    I'm not stressed out, my period is just about always regular. I am 6 days late and took a pregnancy test that came up negative. Is it just too soon for a home pregnancy test to detect it? I'm have some pregnancy symptoms. I plan on taking another test, but what if that comes back negative and still have no period?

    Some women do find it can take quite a bit of time before they get a positive result. Your period may just be off this cycle and will either show up late, or you may even skip it altogether. This can happen now and then even if it hasn't before.

    If the test is negative, wait and see what happens when you would expect your period for next month and test again at that time if necessary. If still no period, and test is negative, then you would want to see your doctor.
