Dr. Kevin O'neil answered

Specializes in Urogynecology

No: If you are having bleeding when you expect your period and your pregnancy test is negative, I don't think that you are pregnant. Sometimes in early pregnancy, a woman will have bleeding due to implantation of the embryo but this is usually lighter than a normal period. Also, the pregnancy test will become positive.
