Pregnancy or HCG levels??

Hi ladies. So I miscarriaged in January (around 5 weeks ago) at 7 weeks. I had a negative on a cheap internet strip on the 10th but today I had a ‘pregnant’ on a Boots digital. Could my HCG levels still be high after my miscarriage causing the ‘pregnant’ result?

It's possible - mine are - but as you've already had a negative test I would ask your doctor to check.

Thank you HidCat I’ve phoned the EPU and as my line seems to be getting stronger and I was only 7 weeks along they have told me to treat this as a new pregnancy. I’m still very cautious but at least I know it’s a possibility. I’m so sorry for your loss and I hope you get your rainbow soon🌈 sending you lots of positive vibes x
