Besides a normal pregnancy there are other medical conditions that can give you a positive pregnancy test.
These include:
- Miscarriage (early pregnancy loss, spontaneous abortion)
- Chemical pregnancy
- For several weeks after a pregnancy or miscarriage
- After certain injections for ovulation induction
- Ectopic pregnancy
- Hydatidiform mole
- Persistent molar disease or trophoblast disease
- Germ cell, bladder, and other non-trophoblastic malignancies
- Pituitary hCG production (usually postmenopause)
- Phantom or false positive hCG production (positive blood and negative urine pregnancy test)
