Hi Myra, thanks for your question and welcome to EmpowHER.

Home pregnancy tests are generally reliable when taken 14-21 days after possible conception so it's most likely that your negative test was accurate and your period is late. Since you are 50, which is menopause age, you may be having a late period and face more irregularities in your periods in the coming months.

The perimenopause period which takes place before periods actually stop impacts your hormone levels which could be why you are having unusual cramps and an abnormal appetite. We have a lot of information on the EmpowHER site about both perimenopause and menopause which can help you prepare for and better understand what to expect.

Hope that helps,

Pam
