late period

so my period is late by 13 days, however i’m testing negative. We’ve been trying for a baby for months and it’s really breaking my heart seeing those negatives. I was just wondering if i’m maybe testing too early as i’m on day 36 of my cycle now, so assumed it wouldn’t be too early. I’ve had no symptoms of a period being due or any pregnancy signs, so honestly i’m just so confused, haha!
But also even if it’s not a false negative or the HCG is too low to be picked up on by at home pregnancy tests does anyone have any advice for getting pregnant? xx

By now pregnancy tests would show if you are pregnant. Have you been sick, on medications, anything since your last periods?

Sorry but I agree with pp, at this point in your cycle I’d expect a clear positive.

Have you been unwell or stressed since your last period? Are your periods fairly regular?

@Hiddenvoice @Olika
No and that’s what is completely baffling me. I’ve looked at all the reasons a period could be late other than pregnancy because i have really been struggling with ever conceiving.
Ive not been poorly, under any added stress this month or anything that the countless websites say.
I would be expecting a positive by now in my cycle aswell so thought it’d be easier to hop on here and see what other women have to say :)

When we were TTC it took us 2.5 years and during that time I had few months where my periods arrived few weeks late. I don't know if it was about stress that TTC/disappointment month after month caused or what. On another note @applesaucetrapplesauce are you taking any supplements? I started taking CoQ-10 and Proceive (instead of Pregnacare) (as my BMI was too high I did 16:8 fasting) and I fell pregnant 2 months later. I read on here that they advised on CoQ-10 on fertility clinic for one writer so it sounds to be worth it.
