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.

May have had a miscarriage you passed tissue but you did not save it and didnt think anything of it until you just started your period again i had no other signs or symptoms of a miscarriage?

Were you diagnosed as pregnant? If you were in fact pregnant and now started you period again you "did" have a miscarriage. In the early stages of pregnancy a miscarriage is not always going to have any major symptioms. Discharging tissue could be something else if you weren't pregnant. I would see a doctor if you continue to have such discharge in the future.

I had my tubes tied one year ago I didnt trust it 100 percent when it was done. I started spotting on Tuesday and that evening it got real heavy with a lot of clots. Could this have been a miscarriage?

If you had a miscarriage, you'll have a positive pregnancy test. Take a pregnancy test. If it's negative, it wasn't a miscarriage.


Can a pregnancy test detect if you are 3 days' pregnant?

If the miscarriage was recent, yes, probably. I took a pregnancy test on the day I started bleeding from my miscarriage and it was positive. The ER docs said that only conformed the presence of pregnancy hormones, not whether it was a viable pregnancy. However, my midwife took blood a week later and advised me to take another pregnancy test at the end of the month to confirm my pregnancy hormones were going away. She said if the test was positive in a month, and I was sure I wasn't pregnant again, to come back in and make sure there wasn't something additionally wrong, a thing called a molar pregnancy. if its an early miscarriage there may be no hormones left after a week of bleeding and it will come back negative.


I had a miscarriage 4wks 2 days ago i havent started my period yet. I took a home pregnancy test and it was negative. could i still be pregnant or is this normal after a miscarriage?

all i am going to say is go to the hospital please


I had my period then 9 days after I started spotting could i be pregnant?

probably you were pregnant and had a miscarriage


You are 3-4 weeks pregnant an have just started to bleed heavily?

4 weeks pregnant is when your period is due, this may be a period or if it is really heavy and you have had a positive test I am afraid you are probably having a miscarriage.


I was 4weeks pregnant and started bleeding. The e.r. said my urine came back neg. but blood came back positive. He said I was having a miscarriage. Two days later home preg. test was positive.What?

It can take a couple of months until the pregnancy hormones have settled so until then the test will show positive.


I was over a week late for my period and I took 3 pregnancy test all 3 have the faint positive sign I started my period it is not a normal period though What should you do?

You should still go see a doctor and have a lab test and/or exam done to confirm or rule out pregnancy. It may have been a "chemical" pregnancy (miscarriage before you knew your were pregnant) or you could still be pregnant. Only a doctor can confirm a diagnosis either way.


You tested yourself for pregnancy ant it turned positive but after six days i started bleeding heavily with big blood clots coming out causing very painful cramps are you really pregnant?

Home pregnancy tests work by the detection of the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in a the test subjects urine. If you test positive from a pregnancy test you are most likely pregnant (they are over 97% accurate). However, there is a low false positive rate and that could be the case in this instance. If it has been more than 14 days since you had the sexual intercourse that you want to see made you pregnant then simply take another test, or see your doctor for a blood test. In the event the second test shows you are not pregnant you could have simply not been pregnant and had a false positive, or miscarried a very early pregnancy. If you are trying to get pregnant, miscarriage of a pregnancy isn't uncommon, and while it is discouraging it does not mean you will continue to have problems getting and staying pregnant. Talk about this with your physician, if you are worried or concerned about it. If you are not wanting to be pregnant and you don't know what to do to prevent an unwanted pregnancy your health professional can advise you on that as well.
