Do you mean if you hold the stick upside down? Put it this way. If the pregnancy test was positive, it didn't get that way from holding it upside down. If it was negative, however, it could be that way if you held it wrong and the test area didn't get properly wet with urine. Try again in that case (with a new test.)
No, it won't change the results so they are still reliable
Not at all.. the test will still be fine. ~pawsalmighty
Home pregnancy tests can occasionally have incorrect results. I would suggest waiting another week and trying another test. If the results are still negative and you still have not started your period, you should probably see a doctor.
The negative pregnancy test is the defining answer, regarding pregnancy - once your period is a week or so late - if you are pregnant, the hCG will be high enough to be detected.
Yes. Try a test every week up to 5 weeks.
if i had a miscarriage in late october would i still be getting positive pregnancy test results on December 12
Yes they are! There is a hormone in your blood called HCG, which is the pregnancy hormone. It has to be a certain level for the hormone to appear in the test results. It doen't matter wheither you are in the middle of your cycle or not! You can still get periods during your first few months of pregnancy. I did! Good luck to you.
It means that there is still the presence of the pregnancy hormone (hCG). Home pregnancy tests give positive results when they detect the presence of hCG. It can take days to several weeks for a woman's hCG levels to return to baseline after a miscarriage; it all depends on how far along she was. Taking home pregnancy tests in the first few weeks after a miscarriage is not a reliable way to check for pregnancy because of all of the false negative results, due to the lingering pregnancy hormone in the woman's system.
Pregnancy hormone levels are highest in the morning so taking it later can affect the outcome. Also although fake positives are rare if you had a really early miscarriage you can still get a positive due to the pregnancy hormone still being in your body.
HPT are 99.9% accurate with positive answers. So they are almost never wrong. Seeing how you got 2 positive answers, the "pregnancy hormone" is present in your system. HPT are only about 50% accurate with negative answers. If you are still uneasy about the readings from the HPT, you can go to your local health department and request a pregnancy test there.
