to be sure maybe take one more, and then make a dr. appt immediately. Just my advice.
I don't think they are acurate past the 5 minutes or whatever it tells you to wait. Maybe wait a few days and take another test.
i would suggest taking another test ASAP as well as consulting your fiance. it seems really unlikely that you are pregnant if you haven't had sex. it's most likely a false positive. that said, have you talked about children and when/if you might want them?
I would make sure to go to a doctor to be sure. I'm not sure how effective the at home ones are compared to the doctor visits.
Oh and I misread before. I don't think that it can change from negative to positive. It is probably because you left it out overnight and isn't a real positive. It is really unlikely to get pregnant if you haven't had sex.
What kind of test did you take? One with the 2 pink lines, or the digital one that says "pregnant" or "not pregnant" ..? If you took one with the lines and another line appeared overnight, it most likely means you're not pregnant. There was a thread about that some time ago with photos. (http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/am-i-pregnant-help)
Also, if you haven't had vaginal sex then you're most likely not pregnant. The likelihood of pregnancy depends on what sort of fooling around you did. If you're still concerned, buy a digital test (the words "not pregnant" are very comforting ...) and take it in the morning, during your first #1, when your urine is most concentrated.
Are you expecting your period soon? A lot of period symptoms are similar to pregnancy symptoms. There have been months where I felt nauseous and my breasts were very swollen/sore, but it was just normal hormone fluxes. I'd try not to worry about it, and definitely take another test.
Sweety, first just relax. Anxiety can cause a lot of the "symptoms" you are having (I went through the same thing!).
Next, I think Daisy is right, the results don't last on the stick very long. I don't know if it's 5 minute or 5 hours but there is a reason you wait only 2 minutes for the results as the box states.
As soon as you can, take another test. But I promise, anxiety makes CRAZY things happen and I am sure it's making things worse. Just breathe deep and relax and take a test.
Pregnancy tests all turn positive when you leave them. Read it when the instructions say to do so - that's when. If you're fooling around and concerned about pregnancy, use a condom!
I hate to be the bearer of possibly bad news, but it IS possible to have no physical intercourse and still get pregnant. I don't want to go into detail here due to this being such a public arena, but I will PM you details on why I say that if you want. The short explanation is that the fluid that is released early during foreplay holds the most semen, and all they need is physical transfer onto the woman close to the opening - no physical penetration is necessary for pregnancy to occur if the right conditions are met. I can honestly say I know a person who got pregnant while being a "virgin" because of that exact situation.
Either way, I would make sure that you re-take the pregnacy test as instructed on the package. As others mentioned earlier, it is NOT accurate after the first 3 minutes, so you need to evaluate it within those three minutes. Remember it cannot be accurate unless it's 4 days or later before your missed period when you use a urine test. As the package says, it is MOST accurate in the early AM urine because of the concentration of the hormone overnight.
If you really want to be sure, make an appointment with your OB/Gyn ASAP and get it straightened out.
Good luck!
thank you all very much.
i took another one now and it says negative. That just really freaked me out this morning. And i just got on Yaz about six months ago, first time on BC. getting married very soon. And then i didn't get my period during the placebo pills and am spotting now. It really frightened me. And @champagne wishes, i am filled with anxiety lately... i guess due to the wedding being so soon.
thanks to everyone who helped. i think i may go to the doctor just to make sure.
If you're on birth control, it's unlikely that you're pregnant. Just to be sure, go to the doctor. Remember though, that stress wreaks havoc on your cycle. I've missed my period when under stress - which then adds the stress of thinking I might be pregnant, oy!
Yaz messed up my cycle... is was too much hormone for me... so maybe it's just not the right pill for you. And with your wedding quickly approaching, I bet stress is making it all worse. If you are still worried, take a test one more time in a few days. Can't hurt and will give you even more peace of mind!!!
Good luck with your wedding :)
Since you just started on birth control, your period might be a little irregular. It takes a while for you to get used to the hormones and have a period during the placebo pills. When the husband and I had sex the first time, my period didn't come on birth control and I completely freaked out as well. Turned out to be nothing.
It sounds like this has caused you a lot of anxiety (so sorry!). It's unfortunate that most women are not taught very much about how our bodies work, and that not-knowing has caused me lots of anxiety too over the years! It sounds like you are not pregnant (congrats!) but it would probably help for you to learn more about your body so that you have more understanding and control for the future when you do start having sex. I recommend two wonderful books, "The Female Brain," Dr. Louann Brizendine (which talks about how our hormones affect our brains) and "Taking Charge of Your Fertility," by Toni Weschler which talks about menstruation and fertility and conception etc. Both are REALLY interesting and I know nobody ever taught me this stuff! Hope this helps :)
I'll agree with others and say that pregnancy tests are only accurate during the specified time that the instructions tell you. Then they can turn positive but it means nothing.
If you are on birth control and not having sex, it's unlikely you are pregnant. I would check in with your doctor if you are still having irregular periods after being on Yaz for six months because that seems weird.
And if you are still worried about getting pregnant while fooling around, then use a condom or keep a little "distance" between yourselves.
That line you saw the next morning is called the EVAP line. It's common as the test dries out. This is why they tell you not to read the test after the allotted number of minutes. Hope you are feeling better :)
Unless the pregnancy test turns positive within the first 10 or so minutes, it isn't positive. It's probably just an evaporation line. After those 10 minutes, the reading is no longer correct. And don't worry, if you haven't had sex yet, there's no way you can be pregnant.
And don't worry, if you haven't had sex yet, there's no way you can be pregnant.
... and that's just the thought process that leads people to get pregnant by naked fooling around too vigorously with their bits and pieces* and so forth.
Yes you can get pregnant.
*sorry at work. replace bits and pieces with your favorite opposite genitalia terms.
Very unlikely that you would get pregnant, but if you are still nervous, do go to your dr. they can tell ya! :)

I took a pregnany test last night. My fiance and I don't have sex yet but when we fool around he has had seaman close to me. I know it's unlikely, but I was feeling a lot of the symptoms. Anyway, I took a pregnany test last night. it turned negative. But when I looked at it this morning, it was positive. what should i do??
