Am I really pregnant?

[Jezz77773]

I just did a HCG blood test and got a BFN at 10 DPO (HCG <1).
Usually my HCG levels are at 0.01 and I'm confused as to whether I took the test too early?
I was on my first round of Clomid 150mg from CD 2-6 and I've heard that Clomid tends to delay ovulation.
So is there any chance that I may be pregnant and since my HCG levels are VERY low, it may take some time to rise?

Alot of labs will put < 1 but not the actual amount. So, more than likely too soon or not pg. I would wait about 5 - 7 days since the clomid does sometimes make you ovulate later than normal.

Ya, my HCG was less than 1.
Still didn't get my AF and it's CD 30.
Hoping to test later on and keeping my fingers crossed ;)

your hcg was less than 1..is that what your saying?? anything less than 5 is considered not pregnant. id say get it tested in a few days and see if it goes up at all. good luck!!

There is definitely a chance!  According to the American pregnancy association:

"An hCG level of less than 5mIU/ml is considered negative for pregnancy, and anything above 25mIU/ml is considered positive for pregnancy."

Your value is between those given above so its ambiguous but DEFINITELY a chance.
