Missed period but negative tests

So I am 6 days late now for my period and I have had 1 positive pregnancy test but unsure if it was a false positive as all my other tests are negative, all my ovulation tests have been very positive now for 5 days straight which is unusual as my cycle is regular each month, has this happened to anyone before as am struggling to understand what's going on
I feel like I have every pregnancy symptoms but just getting negative tests

If the test are negative then you are not pregnant. 6 days is normal, just don't think about it too much and you will start

False positives are almost impossible to have with modern tests.

I would suggest that this is a very early miscarriage and your hcg levels haven't quite dropped enough to start your period yet but are too low to be detected by a test. Some people call it a chemical pregnancy but I personally hate that term.

True false positives are very unlikely yes.
But unfortunately so many brands now have strong evap lines, indents and dye runs that without seeing the possible positive its hard to know if it was really positive.
If I didn't frequent these forums I'd have thought I was pregnant a few times due to lines on tests that were actually just evaps or indents.

Agree with @Accbabymom1994 you're not pregnant. It could be a chemical pregnancy like @Cariadxx suggests, or your 'positive' test was read in error like @PaperSheet has suggested
