Could I be pregnant?

Hi people,

I'm posting here as I hope I might get advice from people who know what they're talking about - thanks in advance for any comments!

Basically, the last time I could've gotten pregnant was 16 days ago. We used condoms, no breaking or slipping incidents. The next day I got my period, but it was a strange one: it was painful and really strong for 2 days and then very light for the next 3, whereas normally it's 5 days steady-ish for me. After my period, I started feeling a stinging pain in my ovary and some sickness. This passed eventually, however a few days ago my breasts got sore and uncomfortable - I'm supposed to be on my ovulation now, but I never ever had such symptoms during ovulation. I took a pregnancy test yesterday morning and it was negative. I still have like 10+ days to my next period and I'm pretty worried.

Do you think that the test would've already shown pregnancy? Am I right in thinking that the chances of me being pregnant are rather slim?

Again, thanks so much for any advice!

My boobs hurt most months after ovulation, it's usually associated with increased progesterone levels.
