Hi,
Thanks for the query.

The possibilities are:
-Pregnancy with miscarriage.
-False positive pregnancy test with hypomenorrhea, means scanty flow during periods.
In case of miscarriage, if the products remain inside that can lead to complications.
So better to consult gynecologist early, get examined and go for blood test for pregnancy, which will clarify the doubt.
And if needed you can go for ultrasound once.
For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.
