A member asked:

I had a pap exam and doc said my cervix s purplish bluish and my hcg test was unreadable what are the chances of me being pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Some: The cervix can sometimes look a little blue with pregnancy. This is due to increase in blood flow to the cervix. But it is not an accurate way to diagnose pregnancy. Repeating a pregnancy test in 5-7 days is much more accurate.
