Question

Pregnancy or miscarriage hormone?

Hi all. On 16 th march I ovulated and my partner and I DTD .... Leading up to af I felt off colour but all my tests were negative. So my period arrived on time so I discarded the idea. But still feeling off colour I retested a week after my period ended and got a pos hpt. I contacted my gp who warned me I had likely miscarried with my period and it was the pos result was prob just left over hormone lingering and to keep retesting every 3 days to see if the line gets fainter or stronger. Well the line eventually faded to negative so I assumed I had indeed miscarried. But a week later I suddenly got a pos hpt again! Gp recommended I retested again in a week which I did today and I've had the strongest pos hpt results I've had so far ! I retested morning and night and both positive. Surely now being 3.5 weeks since my last period started I wouldn't still be carrying the pregnancy hormone as the result if a misscarriage? I'm contacting my gp tommorow and requesting a scan. T I a xx

What a roller coaster ride for you! That was the worst when I started to miscarry. First it was bad news, then a heartbeat, then miscarried. I hope things settle down for you soon! I think a scan is a good idea. Sometimes you can have a "blighted ovum" which keeps growing a placenta and sending out great amounts of hCG but no baby. A scan at this point should show what is going on. I hope it is a good result!!!
