Hi doctor,
Before eight weeks, I had a urine pregnancy test through home pregnancy kit and it was positive. But, I never get a positive result after that until yesterday. I am noticing only a faint line. I have also used different kits and the answer is always negative. What could be the reason?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- The home pregnancy test can also give rise to false positive results. But, it is 99% correct.
- Another thing is that, you have to interpret the report in 2 minutes. If you check for result after 15 minutes, sometimes test may come positive. But, that is not correct.
- Better to confirm the pregnancy with a blood test called serum beta hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin).
- Sometimes, pregnancy can be biochemical also in which initially the report can be positive.
