I've had a UTI (diagnosed Sunday) antibiotics for 7days, started Monday (now Friday).
First day of missed period and I've taken 3 different tests all with faint positive lines - I used early detection tests.
can this be false positive??

I don't want to get excited because I have read UTI can affect the reading. How likely is this??

Antibiotics can't give you a positive pregnancy test. And I don't think either an UTI.

You need HCG for a test to be positive, and I'm not aware any other the two have any in it.
