It is possible to get a false positive result from a home pregnancy test. There are several reasons including improper testing and expired tests.
A blood pregnancy test is the more accurate method of detecting hCG or the pregnancy hormone levels.
You are understandably concerned. Ask your doctor what other factors could be responsible for a missed period. Could you be experiencing perimenopause? Irregular menstrual periods are one symptoms and some women begin this transition as early as their 30s.
