Can cancer cause false positive pregnancy test?

Question

This sounds scary but i read somewhere that some health conditions can show a false positive. My test was positive but blood report is confusing and gynac wants more tests. Now my mind is going to all kinds of places, has anyone heard of this?

I read that in very rare cases certain conditions can affect hormone levels and give a false positive, but this is uncommon. My doctor said a false positive usually has more ordinary reasons. If your test is positive but something feels off, please see a gynac to confirm properly.

Honestly this isnt something to figure out from a home kit or the internet. If you have a confusing result or any worrying symptoms, please get a proper check up. Only a doctor can sort out what is actually going on.
