I have pregnancy symptoms but am having super light bleeding will thiss effect a home pregnancy test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: If you are having menstrual bleeding, even light one, you are unlikely to be pregnant. If you wish to do a pregnancy test, make sure that the blood does not contaminate the urine sample. Alternatively you could see your doctor for a blood test which is more sensitive.
