Hello Mandi,
Welcome to EmpowHER and thank you for reaching out to us with a missed period and the possibility that you are pregnant.
Did you take the pregnancy test in the morning? Did you use the first urine of the day? Was it a name brand product? Did you check the expiration date?
If you answer yest to all these questions, then I think you can believe the negative result. Otherwise, repeat the test.
Consider consulting your gynecologist or primary care physician, who can order a blood pregnancy test, which is much more accurate.
Likewise, your health care provider can order blood tests to determine if a hormonal imbalance is the reason for the missed period.
Please keep us updated.

Hi Mandi,
Retest. Purchase a name brand test; check that it has not expired; test in the morning, using the first urine of the day.
