Some infections in the kidney can cause false positive dipstick test results but not false negative.
No, UTI does not cause a false positive pregnancy test. Pregnancy tests are very specific to hCG (the pregnancy hormone), if the test reads positive you are pregnant.
A pregnancy test can show a positive result if you have miscarried. There is still enough hormone in your body to produce a positive result.
Bad breath can be connected to a kidney infection. This may be as a result of kidney failure which causes build-up of waste materials in the body.
I am almost positive that it doesn't show hcg in a falsified pregnancy result.
No
+ UTI (urinary tract infection)
There seems to be a lot of references to kidney and liver disease causing false positives on drug tests. I could not find any literature as to how the disease can yield a positive result. Proteins in urine???
you could get a positive pregnancy test on Thursday, however, it is not a pregnancy resulting from the unsafe sex on Monday. ~pawsalmighty
No
You need to confirm the positive pregnancy test result with your Doctor. See your Doctor for a pregnancy blood test. Pregnancy does cause a increase in vaginal discharge.
I am an anesthesiologist, so I do not possess a subspecialist's knowledge of either the kidney or the spleen. However, based on the medical knowledge I do have, I would say that it would be highly unlikely that a kidney infection would result in an enlarged spleen.
Pregnancy tests look for a hormone that is secreted by an implanted egg called hCG. It can only be detected if you are pregnant. If a pregnancy test is positive, it is best to follow-up with a provider for confirmation, but a negative result would not be due to a UTI.
