My last period was February 20th, I's now April 17th. I took a home pregnancy test a week ago, it came out negative, but I still haven't gotten my period and my belly is starting to get big. I've been on methadone for 2 years, due to a past oxy contin addiction, could the methadone mess with the results of the pregnancy test?

I have the same problem except im heroin not methadone but its pretty much the same. My pregnancy test also came up negative, Im about 2-3 weeks late, and I have been nauseous every day for the last week and a half. I was preg. b4 and I dont remember the morn. sickness being this early but I dunno another explanation. If you have found an answer to this one please let me know ive been looking everywhere.

YES a pregnancy test can show negative if you are on methadone. I've done some research on this because I am also on methadone, and think I am pregnant. I am not late on my period yet, but should be starting in the next 2 days. I just haven't felt right and have experience frequent headaches and nausea so I took a test and it came back negative. When doing my research a lot of sites said that pregnancy can be detected within 60 days in methadone users. You should probably go to your MD and have a blood test done. I am going to wait it out a little longer just in case....

Heroin is not the same as using methadone it is a big BIG difference if you a using heroin and think you may be pregnant u need to get to a medical professional asap. Methadone is a tool for recovery not a replacement. This is the reason people misunderstand/misuse methadone. I am a counselor in a methadone /Suboxone clinic and believe me it saves lives Please get help!!
