Can spironolactone cause false positive pregnancy test?
Im on this medicine since few months and my test came faint positive, now im so confused. Could the tablet be messing with the result? Anyone gone through something similar?
Dekho, seedhi baat hai, ye medicine false positive nahi deti. Agar kit pe do lines dikh rahi hain, toh you are most likely pregnant. Chupchaap doctor ke paas jao aur check-up karwa lo, internet pe time waste mat karo.
Haan na, standard tests me aise medicines se change nahi hota, positive aaya matlab pregnancy chances are very high. Tum ek baar confirm karne ke liye gynac se check-up karwa lo please. Tension bilkul mat lena, ho na?
Arey haan, spironolactone se generally false positive nahi hota hai, wo toh normal pregnancy test me sirf hCG hormone detect hota hai na. Tumne test subah ke first urine se kiya tha kya? Ek baar doctor ko consult kar lo, wo sab clear batayenge.
Honestly I was also taking some hormonal skin meds before getting pregnant and was so confused about false positives. Did you get a very dark line or a faint line on the kit? Maybe try taking a digital test or ask your gynac to confirm with a blood test.
Look, spironolactone doesn't usually mess with pregnancy tests because it doesn't contain the pregnancy hormone hCG. Instead of stressing and googling all day, just go for a quick Beta hCG blood test on your way to work. It takes 5 minutes and gives a 100% accurate result.
