Period and pregnancy

[Camille54]

Hello! Good day.
I have a question about period and pregnancy:
For example a woman had intercourse a few days after her fertile window, and then after a week and a few days, got her menstruation. Is it a sign that a woman is not pregnant since she got her 5-6 day menstruation the same month she had intercourse?

A period is a sign that pregnnacy didn't happen.

That said, if someone is in doubt or thinks that pregnancy is a possibility, getting a pregnnacy test is the way to go.

Thank you for your reply!
However, I have another concern:
She took a home pregnancy test a few hours before she had her period and it was negative. She took 1 more a day after her period and was also negative. After 5 days of her period, she took another test and was also negative. Does this confirm that the woman is not pregnant?
