What Causes Abdominal Discomfort And Faint Positive HPT?

I had bad gas for two days that turned into abdomen pain, it was so bad that i decide to take a pregnancy test to rule out that and i got a very faint line. The pain lasted two days an now my stomach just feels raw and sore. I did another test and it was still very light. I am feeling like my period is on its way matter of fact i am due next two days. Please tell me what could be wrong iam freaking out

Hi,
Abdominal bloating and distension can happen during the premenstrual phase as well as during very early pregnancy. A home pregnancy test reads well 3-7 days after a missed period when performed with a fresh early morning sample. If you wish to confirm/exclude pregnancy now, you should go for the assessment of serum beta-hCG titres since they give a conclusive opinion, being sensitive and specific. Else, you may wait for your period and go for a HPT later, if you miss it. Hope this helps.
