faint positives month after month?

this post is coming from a place of worry and frustration, not hoping for someone to say i'm secretly pregnant with low hcg as I know i'm not.

but month after month (ttc for 6 months now) I am getting squinters. and by squinters I mean very faint but still definitely pink.

should I be worried? could this be an underlying problem with hormones? I have tried multiple types of test, different ways of taking it, etc. not on hormonal things for fertility, not on medication that can cause false positives etc. only thing abnormal in that area is a bicornuate uterus. anyone know why my body could be doing this? it's past being upsetting now, it's just worrying.

I think this is one for your doctor. I kept having losses around 5-6 weeks and it turns out I've got a vitamin b12 deficiency. I don't know if that's the cause of the losses yet but it's a piece of the puzzle anyway. Could be something simple that a blood test would show for you. Meanwhile make sure you're taking folic acid and start taking baby aspirin once you see that pink line.

Sorry it would be more helpful to add, take the aspirin in case there is an issue with blood clotting, like an autoimmune condition, blood tests from your doctor will assess this also. If you don't have any other symptoms please don't worry though as it's very unlikely you would have an autoimmune condition and not already know.

@keepforgettingmyusername thank you! I have an appointment on the 8th as I have other symptoms such as sex being painful at times etc but I didn't know if that could be linked?

It could, something like fibroids could cause painful sex and problems with implantation. You'll probably need a scan and bloods but the GP will get you sorted - there's very little that can't be helped with treatment.
