I always had irregular periods, the gap between two periods varies from 30-45 days. I am 28, married,This time my periods are 20 days late, I did 2 pregnancy tests which came positive (a gap of 3 days from the 1 st test). I do get cramps in my lower abdomen & sometimes back pain too.Dont know if my periods are near or am I pregnant? Well I excerise for at least 30 minutes for 5 days in a week(which includes crossramp & trademill). Can you tell me am I pregnant? & when do I approach a doctor?"

Positive tests, especially since you had 2 positive tests, are usually correct, but may be wrong every once in a while... however, I think you probably are pregnant. Go see a doctor for a blood test to know for sure.

Hi charlotte234s,Thanks for the reply, My questionis how early should I visit the doctor? Is it too early to visit after the tests.Thanks again

When was your last period and when is your next one due?

MY LMP was on 10th Oct and after that no periods, reply

I think it's never too early to see the doctor.
Can anything bad happen from that?

You probably are. See a doctor right away.

Yep, I agree, it's never too early to see the doctor. Go tomorrow if you can.

I've been taught that it's not possible to get a false positive in a pregnancy test. If Human Growth Hormone (what the test looks for) is present, pregnancy is. It's not too soon to go see a doctor. I'd recommend a midwife. I had my second child at home on my couch with a midwife in attendance. It was awesome!

This is not true. There are certain conditions that do indeed produce a false positive. While they are rare, they do indeed exist.

I am taking pre natal vitamins can that lead to a positive test, I am going to see a doctor asap.Please pray for me!! Thanks, reply

No, prenatal vitamins will not give you a positive.

Only pregnancy, and in some rare cases, and note I said rare, will you get a positive. The false positives are caused by rare hormonal disorders and/or carcinomas.
