Took a pregnancy test and it came out negative but then i used a heart monitor and there was a heart rate of 140 am i pregnant?

A heart monitor? : Unless you have a fetal monitor a traditional heart monitor can not be used to hear a fetal heart beat. Try repeating the pregnancy test. If you really think you are hearing a fetal heart beat you need to see a doctor to clear this up.

Heart rate: Your heart rate could have a number of causes including error of the monitor. An early pregnancy would not cause a high heart rate and even a late pregnancy would not do that. In short there are lots of reasons why the monitor could have read the 140 rate but pregnancy is not likely one of them.

May be unrelated.: May be unrelated. Hpt is not 100% accurate. Fast heart rate needs to be investigated ...
