If you are talking about a blood test then it is 100% accurate. With a urine test it depends on whether the levels of HGC (pregnancy hormone) are high enough to be detected, if it is a ver early pregnancy there is a chance that it wouldn't show up on a urine test.

Usually two weeks after a missed period is the best time to be tested.  A blood test is the most accurate way to determine if you are pregnant or not. Menstrual irregularities can also be caused by stress, infection, medications, and hormonal imbalances.

The pregnancy test was just normal thing doctors do because you are at a childbearing age. She should of gotten the results back while you were at the office, but you can always call to check your results to be sure. good luck and please use protection so you don't get pregnant

Get a blood test any time you'd like. They are simple, reliable, and low cost.\n\nYou can also retry the urine test. Many people suggest trying two different brands for best results.\n\nBy the way, if this is your first, the 'feeling' of being pregnant is not very reliable.

Try Planned Parenthood, they do tests that you pay for there on your own and it's all confidential.  There are many early signs of pregnancy and it's different for all women so it's hard to tell you for sure if you are preg or just making yourself believe you are.  Breast tenderness, nausea, extreme hunger, extreme thirst are all signs also.  A missed period is not the best way to tell b/c some women go through their entire pregnancy with a period.  Go get checked though b/c it might be something worse.

See you Dr. as soon as possible. He can test you hormone levels to see if you became pregnant and can also check you to see if a different prescription would work better.

yes..you could ask your obstetrician to give you a request for transvaginal ultrasound..it seems more accurate than pergnancy test.

I was pregnant with my second child and the first test I used showed negative.. some tests can be old or just does not show positvie in the early stages of Pregnancy.. also I have had Ovarian cysts that have prevented me from having a period for months.. Please see your doctor for a pregnancy blood test if you do not start soon.. early detection and proper care can make a difference to the unborn child.. If you have a cyst then it should be monitored for other health reasons..

Two weeks after a missed period, if you go to your doctor to perform a blood test, this is the most accurate way of telling if you are or not.

Hi there, here are a few important things to bear in mind.\n\nThe best way to figure out a multiple pregnancy is via an ultrasound scan.\n\nHCG levels keep doubling every two days during early pregnancy.  \n\nIn general, though, it appears that the hCG levels are similar in the early part of the first trimester while the hCG levels are higher in the second and third trimester for multiples compared to singletons.\n\nDrugs containing HCG can give false positive results.

It would possibly be found under your lab work. They check your blood for the HCG hormone (referred to as quant or beta test). I think many hospitals do all their charting on a computer. So I dont know what paper you are referring to.

They are reasonably accurate but even a positive result needs to be checked by the doctor. See your doctor for a blood test to check everything out. Those symptoms can also be related to stress, espeially if you think you're pregnant!

Yes.  They teach special "expecting" classes for yoga.  But always ask your doctor to just be on the safe side.  Every pregnancy is different.
