False positive tests

yesterday I took 2 first response tests, both were positive faint lines but it was there on both. Today I wake up and I got my period. Has anyone had this happen & know why? I’ve always been told it hardly ever happens that a test is a false positive and now I got two that are both wrong so I’m just a little confused

Many women have been having problems with first response tests having bad indents making people think they have a faint positive. I’ve even seen a few where there is a faint line before the test is even used. If your period remains light I would retest in a few days and see what it says. You could also be experiencing early pregnancy bleeding which also occurs for some women. Good luck

It’s a miscarriage. That’s the problem with being able to know so soon with these tests is that the you can still have issues like the egg not fully implanting or whatever and get your period. I’m sorry you’re going through this

Yea being so early, it’s still just an egg as it didn’t even implant so there isn’t much discomfort but what you normally have on your period. I’ve had one before also. Just felt like my period.

Not in this case as it’s so early. It’s called a ‘chemical’ I’ve had a couple. That’s why realistically you shouldn’t test so early just incase this happens as it’s like you get your hopes up. Sorry about this xx
