Would a pregnancy test work ?

Hello,

I have been experiencing a few symptoms such as watery discharge for a few days, lower back ache, cramps, nausea.

Yesterday a day before af was due I had a slight bleed only when wiping, today my af has come just the slight bleed, I was wondering if a pregnancy test would work with the slight bleed am currently having ?

Thanks

I would try a test if you're not sure this is defo af. They say if you're getting symptoms you should get a positive on a test if pregnant.

Good luck x

Thank you @yakdee just didn’t know if it worked with a little bleeding x

The bleeding won't affect the result in itself, but may be implantation bleeding, in which case you may not have enough HCG in your system yet so it won't show positive.

This won't make a difference to a pregnancy test..
Good luck

Deffo do a test but not a cheap one. Xxx

@endofrealtionship thank you, yeah I think it might be implantation as I have been having a look on internet, today is my af due but it’s only a small amount of brown blood ( sorry if TMI) I wonder how long it would take to get hcg levels to test

Took me 4 days from ib to bfp first time and 2 days second time.

Bigonesmallone3 · 13/01/2019 18:26

There is nothing worse than is it a line isn't it a line, to avoid disappointment use a FRER saying that if ur willing to wait 3-4days after what u believe to be an implantation bleed (it does sound as if it could be) then u may be ok with a cheapie

Fran94 · 13/01/2019 19:58

@bigonesmallon3 thank you would a first response work with the implantation bleed ?

If you leave it a day or two you shouldn't be bleeding, and with a small bleed it's more likely to be just on the tissue and not coming out with your urine, if you are unsure pee in a small pot check it then dip your stick..

Iv always chosen to pee in a pot as there is no risk of you flooding the test..

I used a few from the pound shop, all coming back negative. Turns out I was six weeks pregnant..and now I have a 5 month old lol!
I did a boots brand and clear blue and came back positive x

PBobs · 13/01/2019 22:01

Didn't you have another thread yesterday with the same question and people said it would work and to test?

williammason5 · 14/01/2019 07:27

Fran94 · 14/01/2019 15:41

@v101 I used a pound shop test today witch came back negitive, but symptoms seem to be getting worse especially the nausea, but still no full period just lighter.

I don’t know what It could be

I don't know why people do this to themselves with shit PT 🤦‍♀️

Seen as u are now late and still getting BFN I think it's likely on this occasion you aren't pregnant..

Fran94 · 14/01/2019 16:17

@bigonesmallone3

This is my first tome using a cheaper one as was spending a fortune on tests so thought I would give them a shot.

And your probably right

Bigonesmallone3 · 14/01/2019 16:19

I have my fingers crossed that I am wrong if you are TTC 🤞🏻

v101 · 14/01/2019 17:37

I had spotting which I believed was my period. Just leave it for a few days and do another one just to be on the safe side x

Endofrelationship · 14/01/2019 21:51

@Bigonesmallone3 I think it depends what you consider shit. Clear blue have always given me false positives unless it's a digital and I'm days late. Where as internet cheapies have given me clear positives early on and I've confirmed with a first response.

I consider a pound shop strip test shit

Kickykickykickkick · 15/01/2019 07:47

I got my positives using Poundland tests. The day before my period was due as well so they do work.

Bigonesmallone3 · 15/01/2019 09:10

Oh I don't doubt that, they work for some but overall I wouldn't recommend

Fran94 · 16/01/2019 00:25

Hey guys I have just gone to the toilet and there’s no spotting on my pad but when I wiped there was a red stretchy discharge what does that mean ???
