Can lactating produce a false positive pregnancy test?
Not unless you use breastmilk instead of urine on the test strip. http://www.peeonastick.com/hptfaq.html#3… 34. I’m breastfeeding. Can that affect my pregnancy test results? No. While lactating women do produce various hormones, none of them cross-reacts with pregnancy tests. A breastfeeding woman can use a pregnancy test and expect her results to be just as accurate as a non-breastfeeding woman. Using urine, that is. If you dip a pregnancy test in breastmilk you may obtain a false positive result. Stick to pee and you’ll be fine.
