Am I pregnant?

Had Unprotected sex. I am on the pill but take mostly for skin so don’t tend to take it within the hour which I know makes it far less effective. So I took the morning after pill within 24 hours. Being on the pill I don’t get periods so I took a ‘break’ and had a withdrawal bleed/period. I’ve been noticing some stomach bloat so took home test 15 weeks later which came out negative. How likely am I to be pregnant?? Freaking out

I’m in a similar situation, 10 days late after taking the Morning after pill.. periods are usually bang on time.. but done a couple of tests and all saying negative, I am aware the morning after pill can delay your period but by upto 5 days?? I had unprotected sex the day I was ovulating and had the pill the following day... not sure what to do 🤷‍♀️

Well yes, I took the morning after pill. Which is 99% effective and then had a withdrawal bleed so didn’t deem it necessary. But not I’ve noticed some body changes so it’s started to play on my mind a bit

If u were 15w pregnant, then u would have a positive test. It is highly unlikely ur pregnant

I’ve read so many threads that say women have tested negative and still been pregnant but then I’ve read some that say they’ve had the morning after pill and skipped a month period but not been pregnant.. think I’m going to hang on till Friday, then I’ll be two weeks late and ring my docs .. I’ve had a few symptoms but worried they’re just in my head, what test did you use as I’ve heard mixed opinions about different types of tests too?

Do HCG levels get higher as weeks progress

I think they rise until about week 12 but I’ve just read that off the internet not sure how accurate it is

Hcg levels double every 2 days.

At 7 weeks the levels should be at 50000
A pregnancy test will say positive if the level is above 25.

The type of test may be relevant if you were 4w pregnant but a BFN at 14weeks means ur not pregnant

BFN?

Big fat negative is BFN

I would be very very surprised if you were pregnant but if you're really concerned go to your GP and explain, they can do blood tests to confirm either way.
