Answers
- Yes I have had that problem once or twice and my doctor couldn't give a reason why either. Not every test is perfect I guess. Good luck.
- Hi~ Yep. Happened to me, too. The lab actually helped me decipher that one, not the doc! It depends on what type of test they do. I didn't know there were two kin...
- False negatives are really rare in home pregnancy tests, and since you took 3, I'd bet that they're giving you an accurate positive. I'd get a second blood test.

Answers
- P., I think how long it takes for your hormones to go to zero depends on how far along you were. I'd be surprised if you still had a HCG level after over a month. ...

- Your levels do not usually double or triple if it is ectopic. I had a single pregnancy and my numbers were just like yours in a 72 hours window. Congrats!
