I have done 3 positive pregnancy tests in the last few days, but I am not convinced that the result is correct because a month ago I had a false positive test. I am wondering if the medication I am taking has the ChatDoctor hormone, which could be giving me a false positve result. I am currently taking 75mg of Cytalopram and multi-vitamin tablets..
Hi, Yes, a false-positive pregnancy test can occur with medications having Chat Doctor as well as certain other medications. Routine home pregnancy tests work by detecting the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (Chat Doctor) in a urine sample. So, the intake of medications containing Chat Doctor can show a false positive pregnancy test. Besides, there is also a documented evidence of antidepressant medication citalopram causing a false positive pregnancy test. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
