Got an abortion back in may been using birth control having regular periods wen to the doctor had a positive pregnancy test why is that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibilities: There are a number of reasons that scenario could occur. One would be that the test gave a false positive. Another is that you are really pregnant (failure of your chosen birth control method). A trip back to the doctor for confirmation via testing or ultrasound may be warranted.
