What Causes Equivocal Results With Pregnancy Test Kits While Vaginal Bleeding Persists?

Posted on Tue, 29 Sep 2015
Question: Hi i just resently found out i am pregnant and took 3 test to confirm it. One of the test i took is first response which had a clear possitive and the other 2 was clear blue digital and both say pregnant 1-2 weeks. I know its completely weird but i had my last period 18 of august 2015 and finished on the 27th of august. Which makes me 13 days pregnant from now. Meaning i ovulateed straight away and got pregnant. I know its rare but it happends. I noticeds ibhave been bleeding no for 6 days and everyday it gets more and more watery blood and there is no blood in my underwear but only when i wipe. Also drops of blood seem to escape out of me when setting in the toliet and it clearly smells of blood. I went to see a doctor bout this and there were no help. They took a pregnancy test (which by the way she didnt wait long enough in my opinion to see a possitive)and it was negativeand the doctoer did tell me theres blood in my urine but didnt explain or do anything about it. So i know im pregnant and did another test next morning and got the same result with clear blue digital 1-2 weeks pregnant. Bleeding still processeds and its like water bright red/brown and i am having terrible cramps up to the point that my left leg is cramping from my hip till my foot. Important to mention this is my second pregnancy which the first ended in a miscarriage. I do have pcos so i am worried this is another mc. So why im i bleeding. Its lighter then a period but flows enough to smell and be noticed. My symptoms are; starving all the time in short space of time. To the point i felt like i havnt ate all day. Cramping gets worse at night. Needing to use the bathroom all the time. Sleepy all the time. And bleeding. Can anyone explain to me whats going on? I do were pads or panty liners but its completely clean all the time ecept for once when i didnt were it and this time there was light but alot of blood on my underwear. The blood looks like plain bloody mucus type of testure but sometimes its just plin blood and smells like blood? PLEASE HELP....

Brief Answer:
PLease get a blood pregnancy test and a pelvic ultrasound scan done.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
You have had equivocal results with the pregnancy test kits.
YOu need to know definitively whether you are pregnant or not.
That can be confirmed by two ways - a blood B HCG pregnancy test and a pelvic ultrasound scan.
WIth irregular cycles, PCOD and equivocal urine tests, please get these 2 done , and then let me know what the results are.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.
