A member asked:
Had a colonoscopy/endoscopybefore i knew i was pregnant 1 week ago. i got a positive test yesterday. should i be worried about the iv sedation i rcvd ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Before a pregnancy test can convert to positive, the developing fertilized ovum must implant into the endometrium at which time the pregnancy hormone can then enter the blood stream. As a result, the previous sedation probably had little if any impact on the new pregnancy.
