HELP, is this another chemical OR the pregnancy tests could pick up LH before ovulation?

Very very confused and upset and hoping someone could share some advise. I had a MMC in March since then my cycle has been a mess which never happened before. Last period was 8th June.

  1. LH showed blazing positive on Monday, HCG showed a faint positive as well.
  2. LH was way lighter on tuesday, HCG was almost non existent
  3. tested again today both completely negative
Did I have another CP aka I was actually pregnant on Monday and lost it already? AF has not arrived yet. Or has anyone heard that HCG test can pick up LH as well aka i was just coming to OPK peak? I am so confused and upset..

I'm going to say it was an LH surge to trigger ovulation as that's exactly how it would play out. I've definitely read before HCG tests can detect that. So sorry you're in pain xx

Sorry @tiantian1005 , LH strips can detect HCG but this is not true the other way around. HCG tests do not show LH. They can differentiate between the 2 chemicals whilst LH strips cannot. I think you may have had a chemical.
