Have you had a positive pregnancy test but you're not pregnant? Is that even possible? It turns out that 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)
