Question 1

day 7 no period when should i get my blood tested for pregnancy or should take one more h.p.t ?

Accepted Answer

H.p.t. is good: To detect and early pregnancy, the various home pregnancy tests are very sensitive and compare very well to the blood test. The advantage of the blood test is that it can provide a numerical value (a "quantitative" test) that can be useful in monitoring an early pregnancy.

Question 2

recently ive taken a pregnancy test & tested positive ive been having severe back & legcramps but no blood. they hurt so bad & i get them every day.

Accepted Answer

See doctor: It is time for you to contact your doctor to find out what the problem is especially when you are pregnant. I presume that you are still in the early stage of pregnancy and one should not expect having severe pain anywhere from it.

Question 3

why did i get three positive pregnancy test and blood tested negative?

Accepted Answer

5 reasons: There are several reasons why a woman may obtain a positive result on an a home pregnancy test when she is not actually pregnant. 1. False positive pregnancy test due to improper testing. 2. Evaporation line on a pregnancy test. 3. Certain medical conditions can lead to false positive test results. 4.False positive pregnancy tests can be caused by certain medicine
5. Defective pregnancy tests.

Question 4

tested for pregnancy 2 week after missed period neg, then 3 week after missed period blood test negative. currently did not get my period this month either. can it be ectopic pregnancy since they produce lower hcg levels ?

Accepted Answer

: An ectopic pregnancy will have a positive test and associated pain

Question 5

got blood tested for pregnancy test, came back negative. is this test certain because i'm still convinced i'm pregnant ?

Accepted Answer

Need more info: Did you have unprotected sex? Did you miss a period? If the blood test was done 3-4 days after a missed period and it was negative, you not likely to be pregnant. You could do a home test in a week or so. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions for the test carefully. If the result is negative you could re do it in 3-4 days if you do not get your period by then.
Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor.

Question 6

is 18 days enough time to get a quantitative blood test done for pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

: If your periods are regular (24-32 days apart) and the "18 days" represents time after your normal period was due, it is enough time to obtain a quantitative HCG level.

Question 7

would i get accurate blood test pregnancy report if i am taking microgyno and suspect i am pregnant? it's urgent please help

Accepted Answer

Microgynon?: Urine or blood pregnancy tests are very accurate, regardless of whether a woman is on birth control pills or not. One can do the test about 3 weeks after sex (3 weeks after when conception could have occurred). The result almost always will be negative, if one is using her birth control pills properly. Rarely is a pregnancy test an urgent matter.

Question 8

how long does it take to get blood test results for pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy blood test: You should get this result the same day if there is an urgent need.

Question 9

how many times will i need to get my blood pressure checked in pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

At every visit: You will have your blood pressure checked at every visit.  It is normal in pregnancy to see your blood pressure decrease in the second trimester and then slowly rise.  Blood pressure measurements, especially in the second half of pregnancy, are important in identifying women with gestational hypertension and/or preeclampsia, conditions that can significantly impact both mother and baby.

Question 10

how old do you have to be to get a blood test done to check for pregnancy ?

Accepted Answer

No requirement: That can be done at any age but the over the counter pregnancy tests are quick, easy and just as accurate.
