Pregnancy Tests

My husband and I are 6 days in and I had been speaking with someone who's friend had gone through IVF and was taking HPT within a couple of days and they were showing pregnant. She told the nurse at her clinic and they said because of all the hormone treatment the test will more than like give a positive reading and can give false impresion because this may not be the case. Hope this helps.

If your normal period is late you should take a home pregnancy test and/or see your dr.

Yes, it is possible to be pregnant if your period is only a week late; however, it is also possible that one is not pregnant.

In other words, a period that is one week late alone does not prove or disprove pregnancy. To be sure, either consult a doctor or do a pregnancy test after another week goes by.

Regardless, if one feels that they are pregnant, they should seek medical advice.

Though rare to experience a period while pregnant, you should still be able to get an accurate answer about six weeks from your previous period. My experience is, I took a generic pregnancy test and got a false negative. so I suggest Answer or first response.

Its usually not a good idea you should wait until after your period to take a test and if it is a normal periods you probably are not pregnant. Some women have periods while they are pregnant but it is usually light bleeding or don't last as long as usual, etc. It is a bit of a waste of money as having a period gives you a pretty good idea that you are not pregnant.

Usually it's just a minute or two, depending on the strength of the hormones.

Yes, It is possible. I would wait another week and re test. If that one is negative then go see your Dr. It could be soemthing more serious like a cyst or a Ectopic Pregnancy. I have the same problem im almost 4 weeks late since mt last period still dont have period but keep on getting negative hpts i have pregnancy symptoms like headache nausea always hungry i wish my period will come already if im not pregnant im getting frustrated with this waiting game. = Answer = I am on the same page. I am three weeks late and still getting negative results. I have heard that it's possible that it is still too early to tell. Every woman is different and the hormones may not be showing up in your urine yet. Answer I'm on a similar page. I am on day 30 of an unknown cycle (PCOS patient) and I just tested this morning, and it's negative. I don't really know if I should test again, or presume I'm not pregnant! Can anyone answer that question?

Yes, it is possible to still be pregnant. Wait another couple of days and take another one. If you are still late and the tests are negative, go see a doctor. But I am normally a very regular person and I was a week late the last two months. So it is possible to be late and not be pregnant.

hi there.....your method of birth control really is about the worse thing you can do.... I think you are just having a very light period. However, go to your local drug store and buy a pregnancy test kit and follow the directions carefully.

Next, visit a doctor.............any doctor ...................and get on birth control pills. They are quite inexpensive. If you don't have the money, try your local planned parenthood clinic.

Also, if you don't have the money, what are you planning to do when you DO become pregnant......and you WILL, you know....guaranteed. A girl needs to plan her life, or else she will just ride the wave of whatever life throws her way and she will end up very, very sorry about it all.

You need to discuss these things with your mom, or dad. You will be discussing your pregnancy, otherwise. Which would you rather it be?

no, as long as it is increasing in numbers, you should be fine... According to the American Pregnancy Association, hCG levels taper off after 10-11 weeks of pregnancy.

Fluctuations in an individual's blood pressure are normal during the course of a day. When one awakens, the blood pressure is lower as a result of the decreased metabolism and physical activity during sleep. As metabolism and activity increases during the day, the blood pressure rises.

Pregnancy can also be detected through a blood test

The old wives tale was if you dreamt of being pregnant or a birth there would be a death. If you dreamt of a death there would be a birth. It could simply mean you want to get pregnant or are trying to get pregnant. You may have had a conversation with a friend or acquaintance that has mentioned they are pregnant or trying to get pregnant and this is good enough to create a dream. Humans dream every half hour, but remember few dreams and it's the last few seconds upon wakening when we remember good/bad dreams.

what does the t and c mean on the pregnancy test

You cannot have HCG in your system unless you are pregnant or have recently been pregnant. As pregnancy week numbers are counted from your last period and not from the day you actually concieved, a figure of 7.5 would imply you are 4 weeks pregnant, ie that you concieved 2 weeks ago. The level of hcg in your system should roughly double every 48 hours if you are experiencing a normal pregnancy. If the hcg levels drop it is likely you have suffered an early miscarriage.

Actually you CAN have HCG in your blood without being pregnant. Any level ABOVER 25 means you ARE, since your levels are 7.5, more than likely YOU ARE NOT!

Minnesota Attorney General Encouraged Concealment of Breath Tests' Critical Flaws Roseville, MN. June 5th, 2008 ---- Criminal Defense Attorney Chuck Ramsay announced today that he will intercede in The Minnesota Department of Public Safety's federal lawsuit against intoxilyzer manufacturer CMI of Kentucky, Inc. In March 2008, The Minnesota Attorney General's office filed a federal suit against CMI on behalf of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. The suit alleges that CMI breached the contract for the sale and maintenance of a fleet of evidentiary breath test instruments to be used by the State, for the purpose of investigating and prosecuting the crime of DWI. In that contract, CMI agreed to sell and maintain the fleet of instruments and to release information pertaining to each respective instrument when ordered to do so by the courts. CMI also expressly agreed that any intellectual property material originating and arising out of the contract would become the sole property of the State. CMI breached both of those obligations. Ramsay claims the state filed suit only in response to judges' complaints of aggressive litigation by criminal defense attorneys demanding access to the software from the courts. Ramsay states that as early as 2006, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension knew its 200 plus intoxilyzers were malfunctioning. Minnesota's Intoxilyzer 5000 displays a driver's alcohol results on its LED readout; yet sporadically records a higher result on the final test record. The state discovered this and other fatal defects after hastily installing the current Intoxilyzer software in 2005. This prompted the BCA to complain to CMI about the discovered oddities. A BCA employee sent the complaint via email to five CMI representatives and four BCA employees. This email uncovered by Ramsay exposed what Ramsay calls a smoking gun, evidencing the need for independent review of the Intoxilyzer's software. The State continues to use the bug-riddled software to operate its more than 200 Intoxilyzers, administered to nearly 34,000 drivers annually. According to the BCA employee, the Attorney General's office, fearing an escalation in the so-called source challenge, advised the BCA to wait until the challenge had lost momentum. Ramsay intends to file a motion to intervene in the federal lawsuit the AG filed against CMI, a Kentucky corporation. "Its clear the AG will not protect the rights of Minnesotan's in that law suit. I'm intervening to ensure justice prevails. Otherwise, the AG will use this case only for appearance." "These black boxes not only deprive citizens' of their right to drive, but also put innocent people in jail. The Minnesota Attorney General, our state's chief prosecutor, chose to protect the interests of a secretive, foreign company rather than fight for the constitutional rights of Minnesota citizens. Most alarming, is that the AG encouraged the cover-up of a fatally flawed breath machine that the public, police and courts believed, and still believe, to be 100% accurate."

Delays in your period can be caused by a variety of different things. Pregnancy is only one of these. You may of tested too early and if this is the case, I would recommend you perform a HPT 3 - 4 weeks after you last had unprotected sex. Alternatively see your Doctor for a Quantitative beta hcg pregnancy blood test which can be performed now. It is 100% accurate.

You are not pregnant. I don't know if this is a relief or a disappointment for you. the above answer is not true, it may take awhile for hcg levels to show up on both urine and blood streams. I would wait for about 2 weeks and take another test.

Yes, If your quantitative hcg levels are increasing and then start decreasing slowly or rapidly during early pregnancy, it may be a chance that a miscarriage is occurring.

hi there, from what i have read and what i know, if you were pregnant with twins your hormone levels would be higher earlier on. i have one child and i did a test two days after my missed period and it was positive straight away! i am pregnant again with my second and i did a test one day before my missed period and it came back positive (two times!!) i say wait two more days as the hcg hormone doubles every couple of days, if you are pregnant it should show up then. good luck and i hope it is positive!!

A Blood test can detect a pregnancy as early as 7-12 days from conception, so a woman may not have even missed her period yet. The test is looking for the hormone HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) which is produced by the placenta of a pregnant woman.
