 Go to your nearest GP honey and just get the test done where the results will be more accurate...get your answer now rather than wait around for a period that might never happen...set your mind at ease and get your answers now! Best of luck! x

 At 14 your periods maybe irregular as you are still going through puberty. However, home pregnancy kits are not 100% reliable (a friend of mine was 4 months pregnant and didn't know until she went to the hospital for another issue as her pregnancy kits had come back negative). The only way to find out is to go to the doctor and have a blood test. As for the having sex at 14, well perhaps next time you are tempted to do the deed then you will remember how stressed out you are right now. It is much nicer to wait and have sex with someone who likes you in the long term - lots of teenage boys are just after sex for sex sake as I am sure you are now discovering. Take Care!

But if you have done four tests and they have all shown negative,because they are reasonably accurate,then the possibility of you being pregnant is pretty small. I would go to your local family planning clinic or GP just to get another test done and to put your mind at rest. In future, please use contraceptives, you want to be able to live and enjoy your teenage years, not spend your time worrying about motherhood.

If the concentration of the hCG hormone produced during pregnancy is below the required threshold of the test, then the test will register false. This may happen before the 5th week of pregnancy (defined as 5 weeks from the last menstrual period).
I think that the best thing you can do to put your mind at rest is to see a doctor. The tests that they can perform on either a blood or urine smple will be more accurate than a home pregnancy test. Of course, it may be nothing, but at least your mind will be at rest.
I also assume that you did not use protection. 14 is very young to be sexually active, I wouldn't recommend that you have sex, but if you absolutely must then make sure that you are using some form of contreceptive. Pregnancy isn't your only worry, STIs are sadly widespread.
Hope this helps.

 Its been three months since your last period? I can see why you're worried! You're young so it could be just a very late period. Best idea is to go to your GP or a family planning clinic. They'll do one of their tests and give you the results that will be 100% accurate. It'll save you the worry.
Good luck!
