Re: chemical pregnancy
It's basically a VERY VERY VERY early miscarriage!!!
For a chemical, you might get a positive pregnancy test one day and then negative a few days later

Re: chemical pregnancy
yep.
usually it shows as a late period. it's just a super super early miscarriage. i think while it's all still cells dividing and all.

Re: chemical pregnancy
its when the egg and sperm meet and fertilize, but an issue occurs at the time of implantation. the embryo or blast partially implants, enough to produce HCG (pregnancy hormone) but you miscarry a short time later. for some chemicals you never get a positive HPT but AF arrives a few days later. for others HCG rises enough that you can get a very positive HPT, but still miscarry soon after.
having one isnt rare. many girls have them and dont even know it. having multiple ones in a row can signify and issue.
