Help a man out. Gf is nearly 6 weeks late. Tests are saying she's not pregnant but we're scared. Are they always accurate?

My girlfriend last had her period mid December. Its now the 4th of February .

So that is pretty late. We done two tests last week that came back negative. Up until last week she insisted she definitely wasn't. She seemed annoyed last night and very quiet. She said she was scared but doesn't think she is.

Is there any other reason why it could be this late? She has been stressed a lot recently between work and her PHD she also took the morning after pill 3 weeks ago, which we know sometimes can effect it.
Should we see a doctor or try another test? Is there any other explaination that isn't pregnancy?

Thanks, we've had a doctor's appointment booked for a few days now. Not until next week. I just wanted to get your opinions as the wait is killing me.

She should go to the doctor to get an hCG blood test done. That's the most accurate way of finding out if you're pregnant. The pee tests you get at the store have a higher chance of false negatives.

It could definitely be the stress too. That fucks up the body like you won't believe, and the more she worries the worse it gets. The plan B pill messes everything up as well which is why they tell you not to use it all the time.

So go to the doctor. It's the only way to find out for sure what's going on. If she's not pregnant, maybe she can ask to go on birth control.

I think she should see a doctor to be 100% sure if she's pregnant or not. At this point only blood test could clear up all the doubts. Of course, she could be just stressed out. Sometimes fear of being pregnant causes periods to be late. And morning after pills definitely mess with women's cycle. As I said before, seeing a doctor would save you from lots of needless guessing and worrying.

well stress can certainly effect it... also I do know taking the morning after pill can have an effect as well.

I think that you should probably have her go see a doctor though

A doctor could give you a better answer than people on this site. I don't know why that wasn't the first thought instead of just going on girls ask guys. Pregnancy tests can be wrong, but there could also be something wrong with her if she missed a period. It might not be a pregnancy. I ignored it when I missed a period because I am a virgin, so I figured it was not a big deal. It turned out it was from an ovarian cyst and it got out of control.

She needs to go to the doctor to get a pregnancy test.
On the bright side she may just have skipped this period. I know it's not as likely in girls at that age but with the stress it's possible

Sounds like she's pregnant. I don't think girls are ever that late & not pregnant. Store bought pregnancy tests give false positives/negatives all the time.

If she has serious Heath problems then she's missing her period for a reason.

If she doesn't.. She is probably pregnant.

Pregnancy tests are not always accurate. I think it's better to see a doctor. Have you ever seen a show I didn't Know I was Pregnant?

Pregnancy tests are not always accurate. Go take a blood test.
