2 positive hpts, negative quantitative blood test - confused about the results.......From: Confused (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 28 Mar 2002 23:27:43 -0600 (CST)
I took two home pregnancy tests, with positive results. Both tests were done exactly as the directions said, and checked within the appropriate time limits. My spouse and friend saw the results and agreed they appear positive. I had a quantitative blood test and the nurse called with the results. She said the test was negative, and when I asked what the hcg count was, she replied, "your level was -1". And, then she replied anything under 5 was negative. I have always heard that every woman has some level of hcg - so how can mine be a negative number??? And, how can a home test detect hcg when I supposedly have absolutely no hcg in my body (according to the blood test). And last, I was taking aygestin 5mg to regulate my cycles and stopped before the last cycle started (Feb 11 was LMP). Can the aygestin affect my hcg levels? Can severe anemia affect any of the results??? Thank you!
