How long to leave it before taking pregnancy test?

[Anon247]

Hello so I don’t normally post but I’m in a bit of a confusing situation atm and after some advice please

I’ve been feeling so nauseous for the last 2 weeks but never actually been sick and I’ve just felt really hungry. Assumed it was my period but I’ve been on and off bleeding for about 2 weeks now too.

I did wonder if I could be pregnant and took a test which happened to be 21 days after the last time I had intercourse and it was negative… is this reliable or do I need to wait longer?

If your period is due and you've had bleeding and you've had a negative pregnancy test, it sounds like it's something other than pregnancy causing your symptoms.

I don’t usually get periods because I take the pill continuously. I had missed one about 2 weeks ago so I’m just thinking a bit more into it probably

If you've only missed one pill and you're having negative tests, it's probably something other than pregnancy causing your bleeds, have you had a smear test lately?
