Thanks for your query.

From the detailed account you have given , it seems likely that you have had a very early miscarriage . We call it a biochemical pregnancy.

The fact that you missed your period with a urine test that was positive atleast once ( even if faint) followed by heavy bleeding is more in favour of a miscarriage. Since the repeat pregnancy test was negative , its a complete miscarriage in all probability.

Even in the off chance that the pregnancy test was falsely positive, you have still got your periods. When you have had heavy bleeding, the possibility of a continuing pregnancy does not exist.

If you want to be absolutely sure and put your mind to rest, you can repeat the blood test .

As you have mentioned that you are not keen on a pregnancy, its advisable to go on a reliable method of birth control.

Hope this has helped.
Best wishes.
