Hello , for those who are actually reading lol I have a slight concern on why my period is a week and 2 days late. I've been taking pregnancy test and all come out to be negative. I've been trying to keep positive about this whole situation because I've been doing some research and seen how I'm not the only one who has went through the same problems as me. I read that low hCG could cause a test to come out negative. But the real question is how long into the pregnancy does your hCG get stronger to pull up in a test?
