Suggest Remedy For Problem In Detecting Pregnancy

Dear Sir/Madame My last period was May 23rd and my period was due on the 20th June (this year of coarse) I was a day late and had a odd feeling so I decided to take a home preganacy test which was a clear blue digital and it came out PREGNANT 1-2. The next evening I went to my doctor and told her and she done a urine sample and it came out negative so she told me to come back in the morning with a first morning urine sample which also came back negative again so I took another clear blue digital test after I left and it came out PREGNANT 1-2 again. So the next day I bought two first response pregancy test and took one in the morning and one in the evening and they both again came out positive but today I rang the doctor because she sent my urine to the hospital to be checked and it came out inconclusive what does this mean as I have only one child who is nearly two and I have never had any problems or miscarriges.

Hi,
I have read your query carefully & understand your concern.
The pregnancy tests results you have are confusing.Both the tests done y your doctor are -ve or doubtful & the tests done at home are +ve.
This can happen in case during home testing,
- the urine sample/ container are contaminated,
- Whole strip was wet by urine flow,
While during hospital testing the procedure was followed methodically. Please remen=mber false +ve test is possible due to wrong method/ equipment. But false -ve is rare.
You can confirm pregnancy by Blood HCG testing around the expected date of periods.
Thanks.
