The same reason you could get one negative and three positive at home. Almost all pregnancy tests are around 98% accurate. The one at the doctors was most likely wrong and from he sounds of it a congratulations is in order! If you're still not convinced, (like me, I took 4 at home and 1 at the docs before I believed it!) get another test done by your GP.

Go to the doctor to get a real test.
yes you can, its called a false positive. However check with your doctor to see if you are pregnant as it could be that the negative tests were wrong.
If you don't believe the tests, why would you believe a website? Ask your doctor.
it means you should stop trying out of the box and go to the doctor
it would depend on what order the test results came in. if you had the positive tests fist then the negative then it could be you have had an early miscarrage. in which case you should see your doctor. if you had the negative tests first then the positive tests, then you more than likely are pregnant. in which case again see the doctor! it would be worth getting the doctor to run some bloods just to be on the safe side. i personally dont believe in a "false positive" result. unless its in the order as stated above.
I had the same thing happen to me. I took several home pregnancy tests that came back positive. I went to the doctor they did a blood test and it came back as negative. They sent me to hospital to do a 48 hour hormone test and determined I was miscarraging the baby. You should ask your doctor if this is hapening to you. Hope this helps.
i would say weigh it up 6 positive and 1 negative. its very hard to get a false positive but really easy to get a false negative. it could be that your doctor has made a mistake or the hormone detection level in the hpt's (home pregnancy tests) is lower than the one your doctor used. it might be worth asking your doctor to redo the test or ask him to do a blood test for pregnancy. alternatively take one of you hpts to your doctor and show them that you have had a positive result on them but a negative result on the one they did and then you GP could advise you on what to do next.
After 8 weeks without a period, you are likely to be pregnant; at that time make an appointment to visit your doctor.
Just possibly. Try more tests in a few days and consult a doctor.
Go to the doctor again; the doctor's tests are more accurate.
It means that either the blood tests were wrong or the home pregnancy test was wrong
At home pregnancy tests are not 100% accurate.
The hcg shot can cause a false positive pregnancy test, so if the most recent pregnancy tests are negative, you're probably not pregnant. But definitely check with your doctor!
pregnancy tests can read a false negative but not a false positive
You are most likely pregnant. Chances are the tests taken the first day were used just before you had enough hCG to confirm pregnancy, one day later the hCG had increased enough to give you your positive pregnancy tests. This is why false negative pregnancy tests are very common if used too soon. False positive tests are very rare.
Probably - I expect it is because the levels of pregnancy hormone needed for the tests to be positive has dropped. I would still go and see your doctor or midwife, however
if you are feeling no symptoms and your pregnancy tests are turning out negative i would advise you to see your doctor. he/she will then be able to carry out tests to determine whether or not you are pregnant and rule out any problems
Home pregnancy tests are not always accurate. It is always best to see a doctor for accurate pregnancy results.
Yes, but I would go to the doctor to confirm it. A negative result is more likely to be incorrect than a positive result. False positives are rare
Two positive pregnancy tests usually don't lie. Sounds like a possible miscarriage.
If the two pregnancy tests said positive, your chances are pretty good. See your doctor ASAP for proper diagnosis and care.
Pregenency tests are not always accurate. The best way to find out is by seeing a doctor, or a proffesional. If you suspect anything, see your doctor even if your tests come out negative.

i think you are pregnant but the best way to know is to go to the doctor, that way you know whats going on for sure.
Did you not believe the first two tests. A positive test is 99% likely to be correct, a negative test is 50% likely to be correct. You don't say what type of test, or at what time of day it was done. email me for more information.
