A member asked:

I missed my period, noticed spotting, but all home pregnancy tests and blood test were negative. could it be that i have ovulated late or be pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe not, but...: It can be hard to tell if a woman is pregnant because some of the symptoms seen in early pregnancy can also happen in non-pregnant women. A urine pregnancy test gives a reliable result if done correctly. One can test about 3 weeks after sex (when conception might have occurred), or 1 week after missing a period. An ob-gyn doctor can evaluate any persistent or worrisome symptoms.
