What Causes A Negative Pregnancy Test Followed By A Positive?
Hi, I have experienced pregnancy symptoms except nausea or vomiting.. my last periods happens on Oct 1, while testing in pregnancy test kit shows negative on 5th week from periods again before one week checked in doctors office shown as positive, so took blood test(beta test) but it s showing ad 0.43 which is negative.. i don t know what s happening... Just need clarification for these.. kindly help me out of this..
please make a rule to describe your symptoms positivelyand not negatively. for eg- tell wht symptoms you are experiencingand not what you are NOT experiencing.
anyways. i understand your concern.
pregnancy tests can both be false positive or false negative apart from being accurate.
the best thing for you to do is get a transabdominal ultrasound done.
it will clear the whole picture and you can proceed accordingly.
hope this helps you. please feel free to revert back for any more doubts and concerns thank you
