There aren't many false positive pregnancy tests.
The test is looking for (HCG) Human chorionic gonadotropin which is a peptide hormone produced in pregnancy, that is made by the embryo soon after conception.
Since the hormone is made by the embryo it is had to have a positive test from a woman who is not pregnant.
A false positive result on a pregnancy test means that while the test may have said that you are pregnant, you really aren't. False positives are usually caused by old/faulty tests, incorrect reading or use of the test, or by an under lying health condition.
However, home pregnancy tests are more likely to give you a false negative than a false positive.
Well I think you may be a little confused here, there is no type of drug test that is called a "false positive test". However a drug test can be false positive. This means that it shows that a person has done drugs that they have never done (or not done recently enough to show up on the test). For example if an individual had never done cocaine but was on certain medications a drug test for cocaine use could come up positive even though it shouldn't.
False positive is a test result which indicates that a person has a disease or condition when, in reality, that condition/disease is not present.
No, folliculitis will note cause a false positive HSV2 result.
Paxil is an antidepressant so the result would be a true positive, not false
A false-positive is a test result which incorrectly indicates that a particular condition or attribute is present. False-negatives can also occur.
EXTREMELY unlikely.
Some infections in the kidney can cause false positive dipstick test results but not false negative.
A false negative for a pap smear or any test means that the test result was normal even if an abnormality exists. A false positive means that the test result was abnormal when no abnormality exists.
The HIV medication Atripla causes false positive THC urinalysis tests.
No
I am almost positive that it doesn't show hcg in a falsified pregnancy result.
This is called a "false positive."
