Ever heard of false positive pregnancy test during menopause?


Louise

My father-in-law's girlfriend who is 50 or so is saying she is pregnant. Says she has a positive pregnancy test. Someone said it happens in menopause because of hormone imbalance. True or false?

Pregnancy tests test for a hormone that would not be present unless pregnant. If the woman has had a positive pregnancy test, she needs to go to a doctor. And yes, although risky, it's possible to get pregnant at age 50.

You can always have a false postive....menopause or not.
