Negative LH but Positive HCG??

Hey everyone, I’m 7dpo (very early, I know) but I feel like I am showing some signs; sore boobs, bloated, cravings, headache, backache, so tired and lazy. But I’ve just taken a LH test, as I’ve seen some get a positive LH test before their BFP HCG test, mine was most certainly negative🥺 so I’m now thinking I’m out this month. I suffered a CP last month 💔 and promised myself I wouldn’t test early again but the 2 week wait is soooo hard! Has anyone got some positive stories of negative LH tests but positive HCG? We baby danced every other day during my ovulation period and got a positive LH on CD20, AF isn’t due till next Friday so I’m not going to test till at least next Wednesday (or so I say haha). What do you think, do I still have a chance or because if the negative LH today am i out this month? Sending baby dust to you all🤍

It’s impossible to get a positive pregnancy test at 7dpo. Try again in 3-4 days.

The fertilised egg becomes an embryo on day 5-6dpo. It then has to implant, so another day or so. It then takes 48 hours for HCG levels to rise to an amount that can be seen on a highly sensitive test.

You can’t use LH to accurately diagnose pregnancy. Wait a couple of days and take an HCG test.

And even then, it might not show as positive until your period is due. You’re not out until you’re out!
