Pregnancy test reliability

Hi everyone - I took a test the day of my missed period which was negative. I took another test 2 days later, also negative.
My period is still late and im having pregnancy symptoms (sickness, tired, heartburn). My partner has got some tests to take this evening, period is now 11 days late!! Surely a test would be reliable now?
Thanks.

Yes it would show something by now. Sometimes periods are very late for all sorts of reason, even if you’re very regular.

Thank you. I take medication for Polycystic Ovaries, therefore I am usually very regular because of this. I was putting it down to the dosage been upped, however better to test to know,

Yes if 11 days late due to pregnancy you’d definitely have a clear obvious positive by now x

I tested at 11dpo and was negative. Tested again at 15dpo and was positive. Now 25 weeks :)

There’s a big difference between 11dpo and 11 days late for a period, a period wouldn’t typically be due until 12dpo, so 11 days after that would be 23dpo

As per others, you'd have a blazing positive test by now. I think you can be assured you're not pregnant.
