Hello
thanks for writing to DoctorSpring.com with your health concern.
With a regular 28 day cycle, if you are having negative pregnancy test, you are mostly not pregnant.

The urine pregnancy test is 97 % reliable.
Other than pregnancy, other factors such as stress, tensions, weight gain, ingestion of hormonal medications, changes in diet, sleep or climate can delay cycles.

Wait for a week, and repeat the pregnancy test.
If negative, consult a gynecologist to rule out hypothyroidism, polycystic ovarian disease etc.

All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.
