I am 24 I had a miscarriage last year I'm just really worried. Is it possible to have a negative blood test for pregnancy? The only other symptom I have is backache

Thanks for choosing doctorspring.com I understand your concern. A negative blood test essentially rules out pregnancy, it is quite reliable. Please get a pelvic transvaginal ultrasound scan done too - it would rule out any pathology in the uterus or ovaries. Stress, exercise, travelling, late nights, weight changes, hormonal medications, alcohol, smoking - lots of factors can result in menstrual delay. You should also get hormonal levels - FSH, LH, TSH, Prolactin, OGTT, DHEAS, Free testosterone, to rule out factors like hypothyroidism and polycystic ovarian disease. All the best Please feel free to discuss further Regards
