Hi,
Just want some advice. I'm 46 and am 7 days late with my period. Did a test yesterday and it was positive. However I have read that menopause can cause a positive pregnancy test. I've had 2 miscarriage's in the last 3 years and I am expecting to miscarry again as I've had no pregnancy signs. Has anyone else had this issue?

You need to visit your GP. Take a urine sample or do another pregnancy test. Ask for a blood test to confirm either pregnancy, or menopause indicators.

Do you have any signs and symptoms of the menopause? I didn't go into the menopause until I was in my mid 50's. 46 is quite young. So my guess is you are pregnant . Jabba has given you good advice. Go and see your doctor

(I was 2 months short of my 45th birthday when I had 'menostop' - never had another period since - first hot flush was on my 45th birthday- am now 61. My mother stopped similarly, aged 47)

Hi
Thanks for your response, I have not had any menopause symptoms and have been having regular periods, my mum didn't go into menopause till she was in her 50's.

Not yet. Am only a few weeks and from previous experience I know that won't do any tests until I make it a bit further along. Also the last two times when I micarried I had a barrage of blood tests that just made me feel awful. This time I'm just gonna see what happens and go to doctors around 8 or 9 weeks

Sorry to hear about your past experiences. Clear blue digital date and if you do a week apart you will see levels increasing or decreasing.

Have you got any morning sickness? Would you like a free MP3 to help you become calm and relaxed? So you are not worring about the unknown as unfortunately, we are not fortune tellers but it does help to follow the messages from our emotions as our subconscious safe guards us.
