My period is late and i have some symptoms but the test showed negative, im so confused now. Could it be a false negative if i tested too early? should i test again na? pls help.
Haan, false negative is very common if your periods are irregular. Just wait for a week after your missed date and use a good quality test kit in the morning.
I have read that if we drink too much water before the test, it can dilute the urine and show a false negative. It is better to do it first thing in the morning.
Definitely, especially if you test too early before the hormone levels are high enough. Try testing again in 3-4 days using the first morning urine, it's much more reliable.
Actually yes, it happens quite often yaar. If your hCG levels are low, it won't detect it. Just wait for 2-3 days and retake the test, or get a beta hCG blood test done.
