A member asked:

I received my blood tests and it showed positive, but my hpt tests shows negative. last night i started bleeding. what does this all means?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Loss of early: pregnancy. Blood test becomes positive sooner than hpt and may be positive before missed period. About 25% of early pregnancies are lost, usually due to chromosomal defects in the embryo. Often the only manifestation is a delayed heavy period. The term chemical pregnancy is some times used for this situation.
