Your "abnormal period" may have been a threatened miscarriage or implantation bleeding, the pregnancy test is probably accurate but you should confirm with HCG level at your doctors or hospital.

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, a recent pregnancy or a chemical pregnancy. Your heavy period could also have been mistaken for implantation bleeding. Implantation bleeding is the result of the fertilized egg(s) implanting itself into the uttering lining which results in bleeding and occasionally abdominal cramping. This form of bleeding takes place six to twelve days after ovulation. ( A females ovulation generally takes place 14 days before her period). There will not be a large amount of blood, some women may not even notice any. Implantation bleeding only lasts a couple of days, this is the way to compare and contrast the difference between implantation and menstrual bleeding. You must keep in mind though that not everyone will experience implantation bleeding.

If you are on the patch and still having your periods but feeling fluters in your tummy and your tummy is getting bigger are you pregnant?

A missed period and positive pregnancy test are signs of pregnancy. Take a pregnancy test.


Can you miss your period a month and then get it and still be pregnant?

Not unless you've had intercourse since your last period. (There is not a time frame provided in the question.) The body produces a hormone during pregnancy that stops ovulation from occurring so you will not have a true period if you are pregnant. Some bleeding during early pregnancy is common, but if it is heavy like a period you should be seen immediately. If you have taken a pregnancy test and it is positive, you will want to see a doctor as soon as possible to discuss your particular condition.


If your on the contraceptive patch and bleeding could you still be pregnant if you have all the other signs?

The signs of pregnancy are a missed period and/or positive pregnancy test. Take a pregnancy test to see if you're pregnant.

Most home pregnancy tests are around 95% accurate.It's also more likely to have a false negative than a false positive. You should see a Dr for a blood pregnancy test now.


Why is my period lighter after i got a positive on a pregnancy test?

It is most probably not a period, but implantation bleeding. As long as there is no clotting or lumps it is fine. If you are still worried, go speak to your doctor.
