False positive test results may occur for several reasons. These include: errors of test application, use of drugs containing the assay molecule, and non-pregnant production of the assay molecule.

Spurious evaporation lines may appear on many home pregnancy tests if read after the suggested 3-5 minute window or reaction time, independent of an actual pregnancy. False positives may also appear on tests used past their expiration date.

A woman who has been given an hCG injection as part of infertility treatment will test positive on pregnancy tests that assay hCG, regardless of her actual pregnancy status. However, some infertility drugs (e.g., clomid) do not contain the hCG hormone.

Some diseases of the liver, cancers, and other medical conditions may produce elevated hCG and thus cause a false positive pregnancy test. These include choriocarcinoma and other germ cell tumors, IgA deficiencies, heterophile antibodies, enterocystoplasties, gestational trophoblastic diseases (GTD), and gestational trophoblastic neoplasms (GTN).

Dear Reader; Yes and that would be very unusual and good cause to see your health care provider. Dwight It is possible. I had all the signs and period was late for 3 weeks, I had nose bleeding, very sore and enlarged breasts, etc... and I was not pregnant. I wanted it so much that I just kept testing every morning because I could not believe that I was not pregnant. So as you can see it is very much possible to have all the signs and NOT be pregnant. Now I know that pre-menstrual symptoms are exactly the same as pregnancy symptoms! However, if you are concerned you can always go and ask for a blood test. All the best!

It's possible but very very rare, there was a weird thing I heard about that even makes the belly swell but there is no kid. If the baby isn't found in an ultrasound than the kid might be in a fallopian tube in which case you would most likely have to abort. But then again, I don't know how evolved science is, so the kid might be moved somehow. If this situation has surfaced in your life then I would suggest more research.

Yes it's possible! You can feel tired, have headaches, have sore breasts and many of the symptoms without being pregnant but you always want to double check to see if you are or not for sure!

Take a pregnancy test and if it comes back negative, check out your symptoms with your Dr.
