Can A Home Pregnancy Test Result Change From Positive To Negative After Sometime?
hi there! I have a question regarding at home pregnancy tests. My girlfriend took a test this morning and she understood the test to be positive. However, when i inspected the test, i understand it to be negative. is there a possibility that a positive test can turn to a negative result?

Hello,
A pregnancy test in the early pregnancy may show one clear line and a very faint second line. This may be interpreted as only one line (negative) by someone while someone else may interpret it as two lines (positive). In this case, the second test in 2-3 days will help clarify if she is pregnant or not.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
