If ive had two periods that were a little bit lighter than normal and taken 5 pregnancy tests that were negative, could i still be pregnant? i bled for 5 days like i normally do both times.

Unlikely: Some women bleed during the first part of their pregnancy, but if you have taken multiple pregnancy tests and they are negative, it is unlikely that you are pregnant. A positive pregnancy test( urine) usually occurs 10 days to 2 weeks after Ovulation.
