Does Strong Positive HPT Cause Ectopic Pregnancy And Is There Any Need Of Emergency Care?
Hi. I got a strong positive HPT yesterday at 6 days post ovulation. This worries me because it makes me think that what is causing the strong positive result is an ectopic pregnancy from last month. I think this because I got 6 positive ovulation predictor kit results in a row starting from day of ovulation until the day I tested a strong positive on the HPT. My ovulation day this month as well as my period last month has been confirmed by my temperature chart. Can you tell me if I should be concerned enough to go to the ER? I have an U/S scheduled in 4 days.

Hi, thanks for using HCM. Use if temperature chart to predict ovulation us not very specific, Very difficult to predict ovulation with this. Strong positive test could be due to concentrated urine sample you have used or conceived in last month itself. Get ultrasound done to confirm pregnancy and location.
