Period 1 Week Late but Negative Pregnancy Test SORRY I KNOW I POSTED THIS TO THE WRONG GROUP!

Anna

My period is now a week late I took a pregnancy test at 3pm today and it came back negative.

I would have conceived around May 19th if I am pregnant.

I’ve been out of the country for the last 3 weeks so I know that’s when it was because that is the last time my fiancé and I had sex before I left.

I was pretty jet lagged when I got here because it was a 9 hour time change and also have been taking melatonin as a sleep aid. I read that both of these can delay or mess with your cycle.

The thing is that I have been having some pregnancy symptoms such as I am super bloated, really tired, I have been having cramping and back aches off and on throughout the day and also have been getting nauseated sometimes but have not been throwing up at all.

Has anyone had a similar experience with their period being super late and getting a negative test result?

Is it possible my hCG levels are too low?

I was thinking that since the last possible day I could have gotten pregnant was May 19th so they should be high enough by now?

I used ClearBlue test but not the digital it is the one with a plus or minus sign. I peed in a paper cup that had coffee in it before but it was empty and then dipped the test for 5 seconds and laid it flat for 3 minutes the directions said and nothing.

Any insights would be great I am also worried about ectopic pregnancy a little bit my cycles are super regular that is the only reason I am so concerned. Also I would like to know so I can start my prenatal and make sure that I am eating a better more well rounded diet

Any insights would be appreciated

Thanks everyone!
