Could I be pregnant?

My periods have been very regular, I always start the day I’m supposed to. I was supposed to start on Monday, but it’s now Thursday and I have brown spotting (only when I wipe). My symptoms include a stuffy nose, and mood swings, and my appetite has increased. All pregnancy tests have been negative. Could I be pregnant?

Hello, If you are using a pregnancy test that is not expired, they are very accurate and they are not detecting any pregnancy hormones. If you do not get your regular menses in the next week, I recommend taking another pregnancy test. If they remain negative, it is unlikely you are pregnant. Make sure you check the box of the tests you are using. Some strips are actually ovulation predictor kits and not pregnancy tests. If you are still concerned, please go and see an OB/gyn and they can repeat the test. Hope this helps.
