First of all I am 20 years old trying to findout if I am pregnant? I took a home pregnancy test to findout if I am pregnant it came out negative. I have been having different symptoms lately, really really moody , I also for the past 2 monthes have had shorter, lighter periods also lately I have been having alot of brown discharge. I'm trying to findout if I could be pregnant, I was told numerous people expierence the false negatives etc from many different friends whom have children of their own now. If possible any advice would help me out alot! Thanks!
Additional info, added Wednesday January 6 2010, 9:46 am: I'm REALLY interested in finding out of anyone knowsa friend who expierenced these symptoms....I know I don't have an infection or uti, I know my body. I've talked to a few people who've expierenced it , but I am trying to findout if they have had it back to back in 2 monthes ?

You could take another test to see if it comes out positive, and/or visit your doctor. They can give you a pregnancy test that'll be way more accurate than the ones you can get over the counter, and if it also turns out negative, then let them know what's going on. It could be a sign of health problems other than pregnancy--or it could be nothing at all. The only way to know is to talk to a doctor.

Well you might want to take a second one. It could come up positive. Your best bet would be to go to the doctor and check. In the meantime, you might want to stay away from alcohol and other such things :/. [ iwantthetruth's advice column | Ask iwantthetruth A Question ]

Your best bet would be to go to your doctor office and ask them if you are pregnant. You will take a test at their office it doesnt take very long. If they tell you no. Tell them what is going on. Their tests are so much more accurate. I took two pregnancy tests that were negative. I had this feeling that I was pregnant. I waited a couple more days and told my husband lets just try one more test so we bought a test that had two in it. went home to take the test and it came back positive. I had to drink a ton more water to take the second test because i didnt believe the first lol. home pregnancy tests are not always the best that is why a lot of people take more than one.
