Hi,
I can understand your concern very well.
Pregnancy tests are usually positive after 30 to 35 days of last period and you can repeat the test after a week and if its negative again, then you need to go for ultrasound to rule out or confirm a pregnancy. Sometimes preg tests are only weekly positive which can be false negative, but in actual pregnancy is there. This can happen due to low HCG levels.
So i would suggest you to go for ultrasound to rule out pregnancy. Hope this answers your question and let me know if you have any further relevant queries, i would be happy to guide you.
I find this answer helpful
