Can taking an antibiotic cause a delay in my period (amoxillin and ceftin for bronchitis, followed by a single dose of Canesten)?

3 days late but pregnancy test negative. Actively trying to have a baby.

Hello,

This is unlikely, but nothing is impossible. In any case, there is no need to worry. Just take another pregnancy test in a few days if your period has not yet started.

And is it possible to have a negative test with a 3 day delay and still be pregnant? It seems to me that the test should already be positive at this stage... ?

The sensitivity of the urine test is such that it is indeed possible to have a false negative test a few days after the expected day of menstruation, yes!
