A member asked:

I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative, should i wait to take another one?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Do: Did you have unprotected sex? Did you miss a period? If yes to both, it would be useful to re do the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions for the test carefully. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine.
