What Are The Chances Of Receiving A False Positive HPT?
Took one HPT with positive result yesterday morning First Response Gold Digital and then collected another sample this morning and tested again 2 hours after collection with Clearblue Digital with Conception Indicator today and result was negative. How likely would it be that I received a false positive?

Thank you for posting your query in healthcare magic.com...
Well false positive results with home pregnancy tests are not very uncommon...see they can appear because of the following-
No proper timing of test
Inappropriate or excess sample
History of hCG shots in recent past
Any hCG positive tumors etc...
I would suggest you to do another pregnancy test preferably in precence of a doctor and get his/her opinion regarding it....
Hope this was helpful...
