Question : hi... I am married since 8 months now.. Age 29. Last time i got periods was nov 17th. Since then i did not get.. From 3 days i am taking ovabless tablets.. And today i did pregnancy test and result is positive. What i want to know is, wil ovabless influences the test result? Can i believe that the positive result is indicating that i am pregnant and not due to ovabless? I do not know if this tablet increases hcg ..

Congratulations. You are pregnant.

Ovabless tablet does not cause increase in hCG or false positive pregnancy test.
