if your hp test came negative and still you didnt get menced means you consult your doctor.

even early miscarriage has dark clotting. I bet it's implantation bleeding or just a wierd period. hope the best for you!

Wait until the day your actually supposed to get your period then take a test. By that time your hcg levels should be high enough to detect. Good luck to you!!

Implantation actually happens about 10 days after having intercourse. If you are usually very regular then theoretically you could test with a first response test on that 10th day and possibly get a light positive if you were preggo. If not using first response then I'd wait about 4 days after implantation(14 days after ovulation) OR the very day your period would normally start.
