A member asked:

Been having mild cramps since ovul. normal discharge. period due today & hasn't shown up, neg. hpt yesterday. what gives..? pregnant possible?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Technique and time: You may have tested too early. Hpt can be positive a day after a missed period, but generally it is better to wait 4-5 days, use first morning urine and follow the instructions in the kit carefully.
