Yes, it is possible to not get a positive pregnancy test until 16 DPO (Days Past Ovulation). Hormone levels vary among women, and hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) might not be detectable at the same rate for everyone. If you suspect pregnancy and receive negative results, consider retesting after a few days or consulting a healthcare provider for a blood test, which offers more accuracy.
