Will the pregnancy test still show positive if I'm going through a miscarriage?
Yes unfortunately the test will still show positive as you will still have some pregnancy hormone levels in your body.
I took a pregnancy test and a line showed but it was going in the wrong direction. Is it positive?
i had same problem with my gf's preg test, called "MDS quickstream"
2 horizontal lines meant pregnant and 1 horizontal line meant not pregnant
but she got a very faint vertical line and a dark horizontal line. the vertical line, which was very faint, disappeared after 2 mintues.
I rang MDS and an expert told me that the vertical line is due to fluid running over and as long as both horizontal lines dont show up , it means ur not pregnant.
therefore for mds quickstream a vertical line = negative result.
How long does it take to show signs of pregnancy?
everybody is different you have to get the stick to pee on
Yes this is normal. Congratulations on your pregnancy.
When should you take test to find out if you are pregnant?
As soon as possible.Sooner the better. My wife and I check as soon as shes late... about 30 seconds after we think she should have had her pirod.
Not necessarily. The hormones that make a pregnancy test read positive stay in your body for a little while after a miscarriage.
When is the best time to take a pregnancy test if you have irregular periods?
In my opinion ,since I don't know exactly how your cycles run .I would say to look back to the last period you had and depending on how long it's been and your cycles(every other month ,3 timesa year),if it has been longer than it usually is between periods I would do 1 now. I hope this helps or at least gives you something to judge by. And remember to do it first thing in the morning.
Is it possible to be pregnant but your test says negative?
Pregnancy tests can have false negatives (you're pregnant, but the test says you're not) and false positives (you're not pregnant, but the test says you are). Especially if you take a pregnancy test very early in the pregnancy, when your body isn't making enough of the hormones hCG that the pregnancy tests test for, the test could say you're not pregnant even though you are.
Will drinking coffee effect a pregnancy test?
I highly doubt it...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 On rare occasions you can encounter a false positive due to improper testing, expired pregnancy tests, rare medical conditions such as certain types of cancer, evaporation lines or a chemical pregnancy.
To ensure the best results:
You may of tested to early. If your period doesn't arrive in 7-12 days, perform another pregnancy test or see your doctornow fora blood test.
You still have a period but you feel kicking what is it?
I'm experiencing this right now. A few months ago I thought I was pregnant but the test was negative. I have also been having my monthly period. A week ago I began feeling movements inside of me. My husband can even feel them. We are both confused by this. I spoke to my nurse at my obgyn's office and she says that it is probably just gas or it could even be a bacterial infection. That just seems strange to me because of the movements I'm feeling. I have 3 other children and this feels just like their pregnancies. I would love to hear what other's have to say about this sort of thing. Could I be pregnant or just have gas like flutters inside of me that feel like a baby kicking me for over a week now.
Whats the earliest you can tell if you are pregnant?
I found out 6 days before my missed period with a 5 day sooner pregnancy test. I would wait atleast until the 6th or 5th day before your missed period. Or with a normal test they day before or of your missed period. :)
You could have something else going on like a huge amount of stress. I am in the same boat and I mean the SAME boat. I am under a bunch of stress but stress never ever stopped my cycle. I have done two prego test but I took them during the middle of the day. I will try one first thing in the morning and see what it says. My guess is that I will seeing the doctor soon.
Is 2 days before period too early to do a pregnancy test?
Actually no, although it does depend on the brand of test, some tests are made to test for lower levels of hormones before your period, whereas some
are meant for after you missed period. It also depends on the person, wheras someone might test positive a week before there period another person might not test positive until a fortnight or more after their missed period. So if you want to test go ahead but if it comes back negative and you miss you upcoming period, then maybe test again in a week or so.
the same thing happened to me, and i still cant find the answer..
Go to the doctor and ask them to do a test because it is more reliable. Also, it might be too early so I'd leave it another week
well my period is now a little over 5 weeks late and i had a blood test done 2 weeks ago and the hcg was 2 and i had, had a blood test 2 weeks before that and it was also 2. still no period but have been having some wierd twingy feeling in my lower abdomin. I am going to take a pregnancy test in the morning but i know it will be negative. I have a appt. at a infertility clinic next month and if period dont start by then i figure they will give me something to get it started. i hope my answer helped some although i know it probably didnt.
How soon can a blood test tell you you are pregnant?
== == Some early home pregnancy tests can show a positive result as early as 10 days past ovulation and can detect levels of hCG (the hormone that shows pregnancy) as low as 20 mIU. I would guess that a blood test might show as early as 8. For most women, implantation occurs between 6-10 days past ovulation, and hCG will not be in your bloodstream until after implantation has occurred. The hormone level doubles every 36 hours or so, so even if the embryo implanted at day 6, a day or two would need to pass in order for the hormone to be present.
It's very hard to get a false positive result on a pregnancy test. The bleeding might be implantation bleeding. You should consult your doctor, and maybe take another home test once the bleeding stops.
How early is too early to take a pregnancy test?
my digital pregnancy test came out positive when i was only 10 days pregnant dont ask how but it did! my digital pregnancy test came out positive when i was only 10 days pregnant dont ask how but it did!
no you could not be pregnant, your just late cause of your hormones go crazy and it messes up your cycle so you might be late on your period. sex for the first time or sex after a long time it messes up your cycle so you become late on your period. so wait a couple of days or the longest a week then you might get your period but if you dont after a week and a half i would do the pregnancy test again; if your that scared go to the doctors to check for sure your not pregnant.
How old do you have to be to get a pregnancy test?
There's no age limit to getting a pregnancy test. You can just pick one up at any pharmacy.
How long do you wait before you take a pregnancy test?
14days after ovulation or 3-4 days after implantation
Why is my period late but my pregnancy test was negative?
There could be a variety of reasons for your period being late. Sometimes stress or hormonal changes could also be a reason. It is important you consult a physician as to make sure there isn't any more serious situations or conditions occuring. Also it is always best if there is a chance you may be pregnant to do a variety of tests - especially having one done by your physician.
