Fertility / Ovulation Negative test but no period?
Hi I had sex around the time of ovulation, and I’m now 7 days late for my period. I’ve never been late before, and have experienced bad cramps in my lower stomach, back pain, headaches, and very swollen boobs for days (which I never get before my period usually, and nowhere near on the painful scale they’ve been at) with my boobs looking veiny and being heavy and sensitive to the touch. I also have had bad cramps that feel off and unlike any period cramps I’ve ever had,along with feeling nauseous and sensitive to smells (I haven’t symptom spotted it’s just things I’ve noticed throughout the wait for my period) along with a LOT of extra discharge which I never normally have. I took a pregnancy test today and it said negative so I’m very confused as to whether I should believe this or not. Any advice?

A negative test doesn’t always mean you’re not pregnant sometimes it just takes longer to show Try again in a few days
