Does depo provera affect drug tests?

Yes, you can fail for a false positive on drug screens after an injection of Depo-Provera. Mostly people with depression, anxiety, or bi-polar disorder can test a false positive. However, it should not test positive everytime, only around the days after recieving the injection.

Can you take a pregnancy test 13 days after sex and have a positive result if i am pregnant?

You had light brownish bleeding about 10 days before your period but you were due on your period on the 8th April and you are 3days late but you have took a preagancy test and it was negtive?

Hello - You may be pregnant. Best thing to do is see your doctor for a blood test as this way of testing is highly accurate. Much more accurate than home pregnancy testing and urine pregnancy tests. Or wait a few more days and do a pregnancy test at home. :o)

If a women can find out she's pregnant after 2 weeks of sex then why do the pregnancy tests not allow you to take it until your first missed period?

Home pregnancy tests detect hormone levels in your urine. Those hormones take a few days to show up. Home pregnancy tests are becoming much more sophisticated, and are able to detect pregnancy sooner and sooner.

Can a doctor give a definite pregnancy test before your period is due?

No. One of the first signs of pregnancy is no period. This signals that the lining of thecervix has not passed so there could be a baby. Usually it takes at least three weeks or a month before a test will show positive Some at home tests state you can do it in the first five days, but I wonder how valid that really is.

Chorionic Villus Sampling CVS is it dangerous?

It's true that both amniocentesis and CVS slightly increase your risk of miscarriage,though there's no absolute consensus on how much, exactly. (It's not always possible to tell if a miscarriage occurred because of the procedure, or if it would have happened regardless.) Doctors usually give a miscarriage risk of one percent with CVS and half a percent with amnio, butunder a skilled and experienced provider, CVS appears to pose no greater risk.(In terms of miscarriage risk, there's no difference between the transcervcialand transabdominal CVS techniques.) There's also been some concern about limb defects caused by CVS, but these complications only appeared when the procedure was done before week ten. If you have the test in or after week ten, there's no need to worry about this.

Do you always have a period after getting pregnant I think i may have got pregnant in the middle of June. My period was due the 1st of July could that have been when i got pregnan?

Most of the time, a woman will cease to get her period after she has conceieved (gotten pregnant). If you are sexually active and have noticed a missed period for one or more months (as you indicate), you should take a pregnancy test. These can be obtained at most pharmacies. However, some women may experience light bleeding or spotting even when they are pregnant, and there have been a few cases where women have continued to experience relatively normal periods throughout their pregnancy. If you have any doubt, it's best to take a pregnancy test (I suggest taking two tests just in case the first one turns out as a false positive/negative) and find out for sure.

What do two lines on the Error Proof Test mean?

Well that means you are pregnant. Congratulations!!! Make an appointment with your doctor to confirm

Can a pregnancy test be wrong in the first month if the fertilized egg had not produced enough HCG or attached itself?

Your body doesn't start producing HCG until the fertlized egg has attached itself. That being said, it takes anywhere from 5-10 days after conception for the fertlized egg to make it's way to the uterine lining and another few days for the hormone level to be detectable. so it's possible to be pregnant and have a negative test. Wait a few days, then test again with first morning urine ~pawsalmighty

You think im might be pregnant im getting pains and my belly feels hard but i get my monthly its last 3 day's or less?

There's a good possibility that you are in fact pregnant. Your period may actually be spotting....which is another sign of pregnancy. I would consult w/your doctor just to be absolutely sure that you are. Good Luck!

Are you pregnant if a home pregnancy test came back positive and a laboratory urine test was inconclusive and why would they be different?

Hello there. Yes you may very well be pregnant. A pregnancy test will only turn positive once HCG has been found in your urine. BUT there needs to be ENOUGH HCG in your urine to make a positive test result. Depending on the pregnancy test, they usually look for 5MIU - 50MIU. If you had 49MIU of HCG in your urine and did a test that looks for 50MIU it would be negative. The same thing applies to the Labatory urine pregnancy test. When they did the test you probably didn't have enough HCG in your urine to give you a positive. You need to have a blood test. Urine tests are NOT reliable and give negative results when women are indeed pregnant. See your doctor for a Quantitative Beta HCG pregnancy test. Good luck.

If a pregnancy test is positive but you're still feeling cramping like your menstruation is about to happen?

Sometimes the test can be wrong. Other times you feel cramping as your body is trying to adjust to the new situation. Try another test and administer the test at night. the preganancy hormone is strongest is the morning. If you still feel the say way have the doctor take a blood test for more accurate results.

Does there have to be lines on both t and c parts of the pregnancy tests to be positive?

There has to be a line in the control window to let you know its working. After the wait time there should be a + or - in the test window. + being positive and - being negative. Hope this helps!

If you have a miscarriage but are not sure can you take a pregnancy test and it come up positive because the hormones are still in the body?

Yes, the hCG can remain in the body for up to six weeks after a miscarriage. The tests done by a doctor can show if the level is rising or not. If everything is OK, the levels will be going up.

Can you get a negative result from a blood test for pregnancy if its too soon to detect Or is blood 100?

Didnt take last 2 tablets before the sugar pills and 3 days before periods were due Is pregnancy possible as period is now 10 days late?

It would seem unlikely that you could be pregnant from just missing the last 2 pills but as you have not had a bleed I suggest you do a pregnancy test.

Can a pregnancy test show neg and be pos?

Yes. A home test can give you a false neg but almost never a false pos. If you test too soon it can be neg even tho youre pregnant cuz your HCG level's not high enough yet. But if you wait til your period's a little late and test it'll usually be accurate.
