My test came positive but ive been having one sided pain and im a bit worried, i keep reading scary stuff online. Im going to get it checked with my doctor this week. but does the home test even show positive in such cases? cant stop thinking about it.
I want to gently say, a positive test plus sharp one sided pain or unusual bleeding needs urgent doctor attention, dont wait. Ectopic can be serious. Please if you have any such symptoms, go in for a scan right away.
Yes, an ectopic still shows positive on a test because hcg is being produced. My doctor explained the test cant tell where the pregnancy is located. That is why an early scan is so important to confirm it is in the right place.
