A positive pregnancy test even though I started my period?

Anita

Hi everyone!

So it’s basically what the title says.

I started my period (or what I thought was my period?) on the 5th of July about 2 days earlier than expected. Granted it was a little less than it usually is but still a good flow (not what I thought implantation bleeding to be anyway!) I’ve been feeling a little bit off ever since; a bit of pain with penetration, breast sensitivity and since yesterday quite nauseous. I decided to take a pregnancy test this morning just to rule it out but it came back positive?

I’m really confused and don’t want to get my hopes up for anything. Could this be a false positive or another reason other than pregnancy? A pregnancy loss maybe?

Any advice or comment would be greatly appreciated!
