A member asked:

My gf took a home pregnancy test and it showed up as positive and then went to negative does this mean she's pregnant ?

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Maybe: She may still have an ectopic pregnancy or be experiencing a "miscarriage". She needs to see a ob-gyn md to clarify her pregnancy status.
