Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Pregnancy test could be false positive on many occassions. Ultrasound is more reliable to know about the pregnancy status as it could be visualised directly.
Kindly wait for another week in case your menstrual periods are delayed and take urine pregnancy test and undergo ultrasound scan once again.
Kindly consult Gynecologist with the report for proper evaluation and management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
