A member asked:

I had 2 inconclusive test 2 negative and one positive, does that mean the hormone is detectable in my body and im most likely pregnant?

It depends: In a early pregnancy, a test might be negative because it is done too early (before the time that HCG becomes detectable). A positive test usually means a definite pregnancy. So if the test becomes positive, it usually means pregnancy. If there is a positive test, followed by a negative test, particularly if there is cramping or bleeding, it could mean that there is a miscarriage.

Questionable: If these were all urine tests I would get a blood test as it is the gold standard and will answer you definitively
