A weak positive result was detected three days before menstruation

Many couples hope to have their own baby immediately after getting married, but many couples fail to achieve their wish and need to go to the hospital for examination and treatment to determine what the problem is and then receive targeted treatment. Some women can't wait to use early pregnancy test strips to measure whether they are pregnant before menstruation. Early pregnancy test strips can serve as a preliminary judgment. So, does a weak positive pregnancy test three days before menstruation mean that you are pregnant?

1. Even if the pregnancy test paper shows a weak positive result, it is possible that you are not pregnant. Weak positive results on early pregnancy tests before menstruation are common in clinical practice. If you are worried, generally wait for about 5 days after the menstrual period, and then use the test paper to test the first urine in the morning. If the early pregnancy test paper still shows a weak positive phenomenon at this time, the possibility of pregnancy is 90%. If you are still worried, you can go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to confirm the diagnosis.

2. A weak positive result on an early pregnancy test does not mean 100% pregnancy. Because some tumor cells, such as hydatidiform mole, choriocarcinoma, bronchial carcinoma and renal cancer, can also secrete hCG.

3. If the pregnancy test paper always shows weak positive results, it may be caused by improper use of the pregnancy test paper. If the operation is confirmed to be correct, but the result of the early pregnancy test is weak positive, it may be that the pregnancy has just begun and the hCG level in the body is generally low. It is best to let the sample to be tested stand for more than 3 minutes, and be sure to carefully identify whether it is a weak positive.

Many types of early pregnancy test strips indicate that women can do a pregnancy self-test one day after missing their normal menstrual period. In fact, not all pregnant women release human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) at the same rate and in the same amount, which varies from person to person. If you do a urine test too early, the results may be false. Therefore, it is best to do a pregnancy self-test two weeks after your period is late, so that the result will be more reliable.

If women of childbearing age experience amenorrhea or suspect pregnancy, they should not rely solely on a single pregnancy test to determine whether they are pregnant. To be on the safe side, you can test again after 3 days. Of course, when the early pregnancy test paper is always weakly positive, the most reliable thing is to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination in time so that measures can be taken as soon as possible.
