A member asked:

Its been6 weeks since the last time i had sex, i took a pregnancy test last week, it came back negative. my period is late though could i be pregnant ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pregnancy unlikely: Home pregnancy tests are very accurate and not affected by foods, herbs, common illnesses, sexually transmitted diseases, or medications. A correctly done urine test gives a reliable result 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception might have happened) or 1 week after missing a period. A Ob-Gyn doctor can evaluate if symptoms persist.
