I would need some more information about you to accurately assess your situation, but I will do my best. There are many reasons why you may be late. Pregnancy is one reason and it is possible that your test read a false negative. If you take another one it should tell you for sure. Make sure you read the directions and follow it exactly. Sometimes if you use the pee-on kind, your urine flow may not have been long enough, or you may have splashed on something it shouldn't have. Try using a receptacle and holding the stick in it.
If you have been under stress lately, this could mess with your cycle by prolonging the start of your period.
If you are young, then your period might just be adjusting even though it has been regular.
sometimes womans cycles will sync up if you have recently been living or spending a lot of time with other woman,
Sometimes your period may halt or become irregular if your eating habits have changed, or you have had weight loss, or excessive exercise.

Have you been having any symptoms of pregnancy? Nausea, vomiting, light-headed, dizzy, emotional, extra tired, weight loss or gain, irritability/ mood swings? any of these symptoms could be an indication of pregnancy.
You can always go down to a planned parenthood or similar clinic, if you don't have or want to see a doctor. Try taking another test in the next few days, If it comes up negative again you should be in the clear If it is positive then there are resources to help you. Wishing you the best.

You are very late and you have every right to be concerned about this.

Home pregnancy tests are not really 100% accurate. There are lots of false-negatives. Since you did get a negative read out but have not started your period then you really probably want to make a doctor's appointment for a pregnancy test.

Home pregnancy tests can show a false-negative while you are pregnant. I know a girl that was "negative" during her ENTIRE pregnancy! Also, just for future information, there is no such thing as a false-positive, so if you ever take a test and it says you are pregnant then you definately are.

Some home pregnancy tests are better than others. According to a couple of studies done, First Response and Early Result Pregnancy Test are the two best kinds to purchase because they are slightly more sensitive than the others. So, if you have a cheap one then maybe it isn't sensitive enough to get a true read-out.

At the doctor's appointment they will do a pregnancy test for you and it will show the true answer to your issue. Some clinics will do the pregnancy test free if you cannot afford such a thing so you may want to check around. The test will include blood being drawn.

You should make the appointment soon to be tested. If you are pregnant, you'll need to start a good prenatal vitamin so ensure the health of the baby and yourself.

I wish you well.
