Hi, I have missed my period for 6 days. When I checked with an HPT, it was positive, and the test line is much darker than the control line. I am having mild pain and a sensation on one side of my abdomen. Is this normal? The pain is very mild, but I am worried if this could be a serious issue?

A dark positive HPT usually confirms pregnancy. Mild pain on one side can be normal in early stages. To rule out issues like ectopic pregnancy, do a Serum beta hCG Test and Pelvic Ultrasound. These confirm location and health of the pregnancy.

I had my period for only 2 days after a failed IUI, and then the bleeding stopped suddenly. Today is the 5th day, and I took a urine pregnancy test this morning, which came back negative. What could this mean?

I missed my period on 24th October. My pregnancy test was positive. After 3 days I started bleeding. Now the bleeding has slowed down and I tested beta hcg blood. The report is 5.2 mul. What does it mean? Am I still pregnant or did I lose it?
