There are several things that can contribute to a negative pregnancy test even if you are pregnant. Some medications can give you a false negative, the timing of the test can affect the results. If you did not follow directions properly; if you let the test sit for too long the results may read negative after a while. It is important to read the results within the amount of time given on the instructions of that particular pregnancy test you bought. If you did not perform the test properly (example: you drank a lot of fluids before taking the test, which can dilute your urine). Etc To ensure the best results: * Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest * Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results * Take the test no more than 1 day before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period, the percentage of accuracy is very low. * urinate for as long as possible on the foam-like strip * Check the results in the window frame of time suggested by the instructions of the pregnancy test.

How would you term a women who tells you she has never been pregnant but presents with a positive home pregnancy test?

I would suggest getting a blood test, if it is positive I would say congratulations, you may have never been pregnant before, but there is a first time for everything. If she has hCG in her blood and urine without being pregnant (something that happens very rarely) she would need follow up tests to determine why she has this "pregnancy" hormone.

No you can't. Pregnancy is displayed by a positive symbols on a pregnancy testing device, because of the presence of fetus in the woman's womb, the waste that the fetus secrete are detected in the urine and cause the device to show positive symbols.
