Pregnancy tests are known to have false positive and negative results.
Hence instead of using home kits, its better to do it in laboratory using an first urine same passed in morning
But if faint positive it could be an aborting pregnancy too
Next Steps
It would be best to do a blood beta HCG check up and sonography to rule out any pregnancy thats aborting.
if these reports suggest absence of pregnancy, it could be just a false positive test result.
But get these tests done after check up by gynecologist.
At times it could be also due to an abnormally located pregnancy like in fallopian tube pregnancy
Health Tips
Consult a gynecologist ASAP
