Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
It is unlikely that the thyroid disorders, antibodies or husband using hCG drops can cause false positive urine pregnancy test.
However, you can confirm the pregnancy by ultrasound after2 weeks.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
