My boyfriend has a low sperm count, but I missed my period and took a test and got a positive result? He went to the fertility Dr. today to get checked again thinking something might be up and still low sperm count to none at all.....he is suspecting me of cheating on him which I have NOT! I took a test last week just for laughs and it was neg. Why is my test now (took 3 different ones) still positive and having signs of early pg when he says he is sterile? Please help!

  1. I have gotten a false positive  before and I was NOT pregnant. Chances are very rare, but mine was probably due to my overactive thyroid. I talked to 2 of my doctors (endocrinologist and OB) and they both said the thyroid produces hormones similar to the pregnancy hormone hCG. The "pee test" can't always tell the hormones apart. I took 3 more tests and they all were negative.
