A positive pregnancy test is simply a rise in hormones secreted in urine or blood. False positive pregnancy tests are rare but can be caused by adrenal tumors, or possibly certain medications.

A false pregnancy test when a woman is actually pregnant means she isn't secreting the hormones in her urine yet, or they are high enough to be picked up by the test she uses. Blood test for pregnancy is more accurate.
