I'm really confused about the result of my home pregnancy test. It showed a faint line along with a dark one. What does this mean about my pregnancy status? Am I pregnant or not? If I am, I'm not really looking to continue with this pregnancy, so I'd like to know what my options are.

A faint line alongside a dark line on a UPT usually indicates a positive result, meaning you may be pregnant. I understand this might be overwhelming. If you're not ready to continue the pregnancy, options such as consulting a healthcare provider for a safe early pregnancy termination can be explored. It's important to discuss your feelings and options with a trusted doctor.

I'm a bit concerned because I've been noticing this yellow liquid discharge for about a month now. It varies between being thick and light, but there's no pain involved. Could you help me understand what's going on or suggest what I should do?

Anxiety can indeed cause physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat and palpitations. However, in most cases, anxiety-related heart symptoms are not a sign of underlying heart disease.

To alleviate concerns, consider consulting a cardiologist and a mental health professional. They can help you manage anxiety and monitor cardiovascular health.
