My girlfriend last menstrual period was on 27th April, and her cycle is usually 45 to 48 days. We had intercourse in May. She took a 5 day course of Meprate 10 mg to try to bring her period early, but it has not started. While on the medication, she took a home pregnancy test, which showed a very faint, almost colorless line (possibly an evaporation line). She repeated the test after 5 days, and it was negative. Could she still be pregnant?

Long cycles can delay periods. Faint line may be evaporation line. Meprate wont work if pregnant. Do Serum Beta hCG test for confirmation. If negative, periods will start soon.

I am 26 years old. It has been 62 days since my last period, and I am trying to conceive, but my urine pregnancy test shows negative. I am worried. For the past week, I have been experiencing stomach burns and slight changes in my body condition. What could be the reason?
