Negative Result-Still Pregnant??

Hello Ladies...

I recently have had all pregnant-like symptoms (dizziness, nausea, change in taste buds, TOTAL FATIGUE, and of course missed period), but the pregnancy test showed up negative (urine and blood). My doctor said because I was on the depoprovera shot I could have negative results and still be pregnant for a while.

Have any of you had negative results and still be pregnant? Have any of you gotten pregnant after the depo shot? If so, how did you find out you actually were pregnant??

Re: Negative Result-Still Pregnant??

Ask your doctor which blood test he did, there are two, quantatative and qualatative.

The quantatative is a beta with a number...if the number is anything above a 5 ...then you are considered "pregnant".

If your doctor did a qualatative blood test, then the results come back ...positive or negative...and I believe the qualatative blood will only say positive if your hcg is over 25.

(Perhaps this is what your doctor was referring to).

However, from all the woman I have known who have taken depo provera, it took them many cycles ...for their bodies to become regulated again.

A coworker of my mothers just had a baby in January and her blood tests and HPTs were all negative...she didn't find out for sure until she was 4 months and she had a sono!

Re: Negative Result-Still Pregnant??

I have a similar outcome for myself!
I started Clomid on days 3-7 last month and and almost 2 weeks late now, with 5 negative hpt's! I went to the doctors today for a blood test and am hoping that will tell me. He said if it comes up negative, then i should take (provera?) and gave me a prescription to start my period again! My worry is that if it's too early to tell and I am pregnant then wouldn't that little prescription abort the pregnancy? I've never heard of Clomid stopping your period from coming, thats why I think I may be pg. What happened with your situation?

Re: Negative Result-Still Pregnant??

I am on a similar boat.....

Now, this is the problem......My AF is usually every 28 days, always on time....this month AF didn't show up yet....I am 6 days late....I do have tender breasts and some pregnancy symptoms. (or they could be AF)..but I did take the HPT today and it was BFN.....I am very confused....(last AF was 5/10)...

Could I be pregnant and not produce enough hormones to show on a pregnancy test??

Please advice...if AF don't show up in a few days, I will go to the doctor...

Any help is appreciated!! TIA!!

Re: Negative Result-Still Pregnant??

I really started to TTC a year ago i didn't get preggo till after the depo shot was out of my system and that this passed march and i preggo in april and then i had a m/c in may.
But it does take awhile for the depo to get out of your system to become preggo.
My friend had the same probelm as i did and she got preggo after a year the depo was out of her system.


But does see werid that the blood test is coming up neg they are always right.
But who know now ah days.
