3 positive preg tests 1 neg blood, hcg cancer?

I am 42 years old and have just missed my period by 2 weeks. Took 3 urine tests all positive one was a digital which said 3 weeks plus pregnant. Been to doctors same day for blood test but it came back negative, no hcg detected. Now i am scared i have ovarian cancer. I do not have other symptoms of cancer but do have some for pregnancy. Scheduled for another blood test in 3 days time but seriously worried now that hcg in urine is a marker for ovarian cancer.

Hi There
a pregnancy test is not a test for ovarian cancer. It sounds like your doctor is taking good care of you.
best wishes
