missed period

I am not one to actually post questions, I worry i will sound dumb for asking but I'm starting to become a little paranoid. I have never missed a period, besides my 1st pregnancy. I am currently on 2 months of no period now. I don't know why I would all of the sudden miss. All PT are negatives, I even requested a blood test & it was neg. My husband & I did start trying to conceive a few days after my last period but with the PT all being negative I'm getting worried there is something wrong.  Any thoughts or similiar stories?

Hello,
Most home pregnancy tests that check urine beta-HCG are sensitive to 20-25 mIU/ml of HCG. The test can be positive anywhere from about 2-3 days prior to a missed menses to 4-5 days after, but usually it should be done 7-10 days past your missed period. There are a number of variables which will affect the accuracy of the pregnancy test, and these include: the days of a woman's menstrual cycle and ovulation can change each month, the exact day of implantation of the fertilized egg is not always known. It is not uncommon for women to have negative pregnancy tests when they are pregnant.

Hence it is better to get serum HCG levels done.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
