I’m six days late on my period. I took a two tests a few days ago and both came back negative but my period still hasn’t come.
I’m generally quite regular (+/- 1 or 2 days) and haven’t been this late. Is there still a chance I’m pregnant despite the negative tests a few days ago?

You could be, but it’s not very likely. I would go to OB. They will probably do a blood HCG test to rule out pregnancy for sure.

Do you know around which day you ovulated and had sex?
no, I’m not trying so don’t keep track

It might be wise to keep track so you know when to avoid sex and also just to generally know your body better :)
If period doesn't come in the next couple of days, book in to get a blood test done
I track my periods and my ovulation but not when I have sex! I’m not too concerned about falling pregnant it would be a welcome surprise but just wondering what would cause my periods to be late outside of pregnancy, or if I could be pregnant and showing negative on tests.
I just noticed I live close to you. I wasnt sure that booking in for pregnancy blood tests was a thing? Do you know how I could do that?

I think the best thing would be to call your GP surgery and explain to them that your period is late and you've taken at home tests, but they keep coming back negative and you're concerned. At the very least they could book you in with a nurse to then also check for other possible causes.

Also dont let them fob you off. If you have a feeling that something is not quite right, insist on being seen. They can be so dismissive sometimes!

Another reason for a later period is delayed ovulation which can be caused by stress

Congratulations 🎊
