Could I be pregnant despite negative test result?

I am 22 years old, and had my last period on 22nd December, 2024 which lasted 4 days (the period before that also only lasted 4 days). I had protected sex (used condoms and withdrawal together) on 12th January. My next period was supposed to start on 22nd January 2025. However, it is now 5th February and I have not yet gotten my period. I took a pregnancy test on 2nd February 2025 (early morning), and the test results were negative. I used to have irregular periods 2-3 years ago, however, I had been managing my weight and they were pretty regular the last 2-3 years. This is the first time I've had such a long delay. What are the chances of the test results being false? Do I need to take another test?

Negative pregnancy tests are often accurate, especially if taken after a missed period, but if you still feel uncertain, retesting can provide reassurance. Irregular cycles can sometimes return due to stress, changes in weight, or hormonal fluctuations. If your period does not start soon or if you continue to feel uneasy, I recommend consulting with a gynecologist. They can offer personalized guidance and determine if further evaluation is needed.

Many factors impact the chances of your pregnancy and  PCOD is one of them. But it does not mean that you cannot get pregnant if you have PCOD. I advise you to please consult a gynecologist for your issue. Based on proper evaluation and your individual condition, the doctor will suggest some treatments that can help increase the chances of your pregnancy.

Delaye­d menstruation doesn't nece­ssarily signify pregnancy. Stress and hormonal fluctuations could also cause this. If you're­ eager to know, consider taking an at-home­ pregnancy test – it's straightforward.

I’m cramping and I’m very bloated and I have not started my period yet

Female | 23

Your body might be dealing with premenstrual symptoms. Cramping and bloating often indicate that your period is about to begin. These symptoms are due to the hormonal changes that occur in your body. Water drinking, eating healthy, and getting rest can play a big role in feeling better try these ones. However, sometimes gentle exercises like walking can also help.
