A member asked:
My period is late, but when i took a pregancy test, it was negative (99.0% accurate it said)... is there any other way i could have missed it?

Yes: There are lots of reasons why women sometimes miss periods. The most common reason is that they didn't ovulate that month. This can be caused by stress, strenuous exercise, dieting, polycystic ovarian syndrome, medications and many other things. If you are having unprotected intercourse you might want to repeat the test in a week or so. See your doc if this persists a few months. Best wishes!
