No, it says positive.
The short answer is no. If the pregnancy test is negative, you are not pregnant, and therefore you cannot have an ectopic pregnancy. The long answer is somewhat more complex. There have been case reports in the medical literature of women with demonstrated ectopic pregnancy that had negative urine and even blood pregnancy tests. It is uncertain why this occurred in these circumstances, but it should be noted that this is VERY RARE. For the overwhelming majority of women, a negative pregnancy test means ectopic pregnancy is an impossibility.
Due to the possibility of lower levels of hormone with ectopic pregnancy it is possible to have a home test show that you are not pregnant while you have an EP.
Although the chances are slim with a urine test performed at a doctor's office, it still can be possible to receive a negative result early in an ectopic pregnancy. If you used a home test the chances are slightly higher. If you think it is possible that you are experiencing an ectopic pregnancy, you need to go to the doctor or health department. An ectopic pregnancy can be very dangerous.
Meaning "negative pregnancy test" with ectopic pregnancy: Any test can fail, urine test, blood simple test, and quantitative HGC test. Also the timing of the test versus the diagnosis by image (ultrasound). Ectopic pregnancy is only diagonsed with image, ultrasound, CT, MR.
Some women who have an ectopic pregnancy have a negative pregnancy test. The hCG which gives a positive test result, is released from the embryo implanting in the uterus.
It may be an ectopic pregnancy
You can test negative with an HPT with any pregnancy. I know of women you were two months pregnant before they got a positive test result. If you think you may have an ectopic pregnancy go see your doctor immediately because if the tube ruptures you are in big trouble.
Yes. If you feel you may be having an ectopic pregnancy you should see a Dr right away.
Yes you can....I have unfortunately had two ectopic pregnancies and tested positive for both.....
BV won't cause a false negative on a pregnancy test.
