What Does A Faint Positive Pregnancy Result Indicate?

So I went to the doctors 09/1/23 and tested positive for pregnancy, but had a very faint positive. I was in disbelief, so a few days later I tested myself at home today 09/5/23 and it came back negative. Am I pregnant? I’m so confused. Has this happened to anyone. Can u get a false positive at the doctors?

Hi,

False positive pregnancy test is possible with polluted (unclean, mixed with impurities, bacteria, blood) container, polluted urine sample. Your first report can be due one of these causes.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
