A member asked:
Would drinking about 8 oz. of fluid immediately before pregnancy test effect result?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not likely: Except in the earliest few days of pregnancy Urinary dilution does not affect pregnancy results. In the first few days the BHCG hormone is very low and concentrated urine gives better results which is why first morning urine is recommended. This only matters in the first few days.

No: Drinking fluids before pregnancy test has no effect on the test.
