hi,
the positivity of pregnancy tests depends on levels of HCG,
some test kits will be more sensitive and can detect low levels of HCG also,
others may not detect low levels in early pregnancy,
so you better go for blood test for pregnancy preferably quantitative which can detect accurately,
so that you can get correct result.
take care.
