If you had a period and a week later you show a really faint positive on pregnancy test does this mean you are prgnant or may have had a miscarriage and the hcg levels are still in your system?

I think you may have just answered your own question. Either scenario is a possibility, but you should go to your preferred health care person so they can look after you and see what the truth of the matter actually is.

Your hcg levels is 77000 what does that mean and you are having a normal pregnancy after a miscarriage?
after 10 days miscarriage pregnancy test is positive. what's my problem?
When had miscarriage and linen of womb swollen can it make you have a positive pregnancy test?
Yes, if the miscarriage was recent then your hormone levels are still not back to normal and it could cause a false positive result on a pregnancy test.
Can you have a positive pregnancy test and miscarry?
Possibly, if the pregnancy ended very early the hCG may have returned to pre-pregnancy levels before the miscarriage. It is more likely for the test to be negative a few days to a week after an early first trimester miscarriage.
Can you still have a positive pregnancy test after having a miscarriage while on birth control?
Absolutely! While birth control does not affect the accuracy of a pregnancy test, the body will still have some pregnancy hormone (hCG) that will show up in blood or urine pregnancy tests even after a miscarriage. As the levels drop, the test will eventually become negative.
If you still have a positive pregnancy test a week after a suspected miscarriage what does this mean?
It means that there is still the presence of the pregnancy hormone (hCG). Home pregnancy tests give positive results when they detect the presence of hCG. It can take days to several weeks for a woman's hCG levels to return to baseline after a miscarriage; it all depends on how far along she was. Taking home pregnancy tests in the first few weeks after a miscarriage is not a reliable way to check for pregnancy because of all of the false negative results, due to the lingering pregnancy hormone in the woman's system.
If you think you are about two weeks pregnant and had a once off heavy bleeding and the pregnancy test showsis positive does that mean you had a miscarriage?
It is possible, but the bleeding could also have been from implantation bleeding. A pregnancy test will show positive for a while after a miscarriage because your body has not rid itself of the HCG (pregnancy hormone) levels yet. The further along you were, the longer a pregnancy test will show positive. I would still be on the lookout for any symptoms of pregnancy, continue taking your prenatal vitamins (or at least folic acid), refrain from alcohol and tobacco and caffeine then in a couple weeks take another test and see. Or you can go to the doctor to either confirm pregnancy or miscarriage.
How does hcg blood levels determine a miscarriage?
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.
How long can pregnancy test show positive after a miscarriage?
it depends how high were your hcg levels, i was about 5 weeks when i miscarried nd my hcg were at 880 now after 1 week my hcg gone down to 100 so it all depends..to get a positive your hcg levels should be higher then 4
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.
How do you know when you have ectopic pregnancy?
Ruling out ectopic pregnancy is no different with or without Depo Provera. First, the pregnancy test is positive. Second, there is a pelvic mass, or abnormal ultrasound, or abnormal change in hCG levels. Contact your health care provider if you think you may be having a tubal pregnancy, as you cannot diagnose this condition at home.
Is clotting sign of pregnancy I am on birth control and I usually start tomorrow May 27 but today I went to the bathroom and found a blood clot like discharge. Is that a sign of pregnancy?
Generally clotting is not a sign of pregnancy. If you already knew you were pregnant, it could be a sign of miscarriage. You might be able to take an at home pregnancy test to find out whether you are pregnant or not. If it comes out positive, check with a doctor to test HCG levels. If you were pregnant it might be a miscarriage and if it's a miscarriage you'd want a doctor involved in case of any complications.
Will a pregnancy test still work during a miscarriage?
You will still have a positive result on a pregnancy test even after a miscarriage. Your hormone levels are still high. Do not take multiple pregnancy tests because they will keep coming up positive. Trust me - I took 5 and all were positive even though the baby stopped growing a week or 2 before. I hate to be the voice of doom, but if you think you are miscarrying, you probably are. Trust your body and the signs its giving you. It is usually right. If your OBGYN won't see you - go see someone else or go to the hospital.
