Implanon, supposed UTI and mixed pregnancy test results. HELP!

I have had implanon in for almost two years and my bmi is 35.

20/07/09- had intercourse
01/08/09- I got a very faint positive reading on my regular hpt so I went to the doctors to be told I have a UTI and got sent home with antibiotics and a negative second pee test
04/08/09- paranoia due so symptoms that I'll list below so took another test and that one showed a faint positive as well.

I have cramps, lower back and hip pain, irregular appetite (not wanting to eat most the time then on occasion an urge to eat but feel sick because I ate even in the first mouthfull even if i feel sick because i need to eat), irregular sleep but constantly exhausted, first blood nose since last pregnancy, weird spotting (i don't usually have any bleeding) and a few other things that are too personal.

I do not have any symptoms of a UTI as I do not even feel the need to "go" anymore often than usuall am not itchy "down there" and havn't any pain during, before or after urination and I have had a UTI before and it felt like I was pissing razor blades sooo painfull but this time (if it really is) there is absolutely nothing and my flow is strong and regular.

Why would I get mixed pregnancy results cos if there was blood or protine in the urine should it not have came up "false positive" at the doctors as well?

My tests were not done in the morning so that shoud not influence one test over another.

I would be ~15 days from conception today does anyone have any ideas?

Polycystic ovary syndrome is a very common reason to have irregular periods. It is also linked to BMI greater than 30 and excess body hair as well as acne. If you want to get pregnant you should try taking as clomifene, which is a fertility drug prescribed for women with PCOS. PCOS are not supposed to give false positive pregnancy results whereas another ovarian cyst that secretes hcg hormone may.

Congrats that is awesome! I agree that you should not have had mixed results with the pregnancy test. I have found that sometimes when I use the cheap tests that it almost displays as a false positive, but it's just the lines on the test being highlighted in a way that makes it appear positive. If you are using the cheaper ones, I suggest trying the more expensive ones and see if that makes a difference, it did for me.

You have a few choices with trying to get pregnant with PCOS. Getting your weight under control is usually a major issue with being able to get pregnant. As your weight comes back into line, your periods sometimes normalize and ovulation can occur. Just a 5% decrease can help with this. CONGRATS on dropping that BMI. Avoiding nicotine, high sugars, taking vitamins, no alcohol ect are all good things to do. Chasteberry (found in fertility teas) and soy (replace regular milk with it and try soy snack bars) can assist with naturally boosting ovulation. Consider cutting all artificial colors, flavors and preservatives out of your diet. (Check out The Feingold Diet). Also add in raspberry tea and grapefruit juice to your diet. They help stimulate ovulation. Knowing your body is also a good way to get pregnant. Take your basal body temperature throughout the month to know when and if you are ovulating. Although with a normal 28 day cycle, most women ovulate around day 14, with PCOS cycles you could be ovulating earlier or later than that. If you are not ovulating, your doctor will want to know and this is the best proof to be able to give him. Three months of basal temperatures in your cycle will show him what he needs to know. To learn how to chart these things, go here. http://www.fertilityplus.org/faq/bbt/bbtfaq.html If none of these work, you can stimulate your ovaries with Clomid and sometimes HCG shots. Good luck and best wishes.
