My period has been regular for the past two months. Late this month by 3 days now. 4 negative pregnancy tests. Was sexually active 12 days ago. No other pregnancy symptoms/ PMS symptoms but cramping and back pain. Did i take the tests too early?
Always pretty regular. Now, I am two weeks late and have no signs of pregnancy/period. I took 5 pregnancy tests already but all are negative. What could be happening?
