Is there any possibility of getting pregnant with negative pregnancy test?
Patient: False NegativeDear doctor. For the past month, i have been showings signs of pregnancy. Overly tired, food cravings (especially milk), my breasts are tender, the area around my nipples has got darker and there is a white substance coming out of my nipples and i have put on weight in a sense that my stomach or tummy has got rounder, Emotionally i am a ticking time bomb and i dont have the patience i normally would. I am showing most of the signs of pregnancy. So far i have done 3 pregnancy tests, and they have been at least a week a part and all done when i go to the toilet in the morning. 2 were invalid and one was negative. My question is, are false negatives common, is it likely that the tests were wrong? And if i am not pregnant, why am i showing most of the signs of pregnancy and what else could it be? Thank you, Sarah... Doctor: Hi, I think if your periods have delayed and you are having these symptoms, you can go for a bhcg blood test for pregnancy.  If negative, get your thyroid profile and prolactin levels done, because white discharge from breast can be due to these problems. Thyroid disorders also lead to excess tiredness. Increased prolactin levels can lead to breast discharge.  So get yourself evaluated.  Hope I have answered your question. Regards Dr khushboo
