A member asked:
Can you trust a pregnancy test outside of the 10 minutes window?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It will not turn back "negative" after turning positive. If it was negative and you still think you might be pregnant, wait a week and take again with a first morning urine specimen. To protect against babies and unwanted std's, try condoms with or without hormonal birth control. As both are forever.
