Can ovulating cause positive pregnancy test

I have 3 faint positives on pregnancy tests, but also two positive ovulation tests which are much darker. Can anyone advise?

It's probably more likely you're pregnant than ovulating. Maybe wait a few more days and do another pregnancy test. Good luck!

Yes, more likely you are pregnant. I tried the theory out with an ovulation stick, turns out it's right that it's positive when you are pregnant.

Yes this happened to me.
I think it's just ovulation honestly

I don't think it can be.. pregnancy tests aren't looking for LH, they monitor HCG. Whereas ovulation tests can pick up both LH and HCG.

I thought this but I've done a few pregnancy tests since I had the faint positives and they've all been negative! I think I just need to wait. I got a digital one but it was faulty!
