So I have recently come off the mini pill, had my withdrawal bleed then 34 days and a period. I then had a 43 day cycle.

I did a test on the day AF came (before it came) and it was a very faint line but defo a line.

Any AF came and I assumed test must have been wrong, I had medium flow AF Monday and yesterday and very light today.

I did a test just now coz i have been feeling nauseous and just wanted to make sure any line has now gone.

Well there is still a line and it's stronger than Mondays test?

I've called the doctors who have said just test again in a week , but I'm very confused and just wondering if anyone else has had this and what was the outcome ?

Could be a chemical, could have been heavy implantation bleeding.

Annoyingly all you can do is wait! And don’t compare tests day to day- that way madness lies. So much can impact it- hydration, how long you held etc.

Hope it goes the way you want!

@missdt89 you're unlikely to see a progression in one day (saying as someone who does it themselves!) So it's too early to say 😊 I know it's hard but hold off for a couple days if you can

Just an update from me, tested again this morning still positive , but there does not seem to be any progression. If anything I think todays test is fainter than yesterday.

If it is then perhaps I've miscarried?

Attached todays test and todays test (top) with yesterdays test (bottom)

@SarahLHs ahhh wow how crazy! I suppose all I can do is keep testing and see if the line gets stronger for now and then go back to my GP of still testing positive?

I'm so confused by it as I've never had this before x

Same happened to me except I didn't test because my period came when it was due and then 3 weeks later had symptoms and a very positive test. The period must have been very heavy implantation bleeding.

When I spoke to the community midwife team to book in they told me to ignore the last period as it was unlikely I'd be testing positive so early. They booked me in for a scan at 12 weeks (from the period before) and confirmed that I was 12 weeks. If I'd have been 8 they would have booked me in for a follow up scan 4 weeks later.
