Hi Anonymous,

If you remain concerned after all the negative results, go and see your physician. There are no further tests that can be done at this point to prove that you are not pregnant. Can you please keep us updated on what your physician tells you?

Best of luck,
Melissa

Hi Anonymous,
One way to determine ectopic pregnancy is a blood test and they also do a pelvic exam. As for the ultrasound, the baby is not formed yet. Usually the first time a pregnant woman has an ultrasound is around 15 weeks. Are you concerned that you are pregnant?
Thanks,
Melissa

Hi Anonymous,
I would say you’re definitely not pregnant since you had every test possible to determine pregnancy. The dark brown color of your period is very common. Once your period ends, the dark color is very common so don’t be concerned. Since you took Plan B, it is very common to have irregular periods for the next couple months. This is just for a future reference.
Did you have any other concerns?

can blood test determine ectopic pregnancy? and can ultraosound see a baby when you're 6-8 weeks?
