A member asked:
If you have an ectopic pregnancy, would the hpt be positive before your missed period? or would it take a while to have a positive result?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: The pregnancy test is very sensitive, so even with an ectopic you would expect a reasonable pregnancy test to be positive.
