I had bloodwork on 3/12 that included an hcg check. it came back <2. my period is now two days late as of today - chance of pregnancy???

Late period: The blood test is accurate 99% of the time. Your doctor will probably order additional hormone tests to help diagnose the cause of amenorrhea (missed menses). You probably had an "anovulatory cycle" in which you do not ovulate and will not have a menses. A pelvic sono can diagnose ovarian cysts which can also be a cause of the problem.
