A member asked:
Will a hpt work if i'm on my period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YES: A hme pregnancy test measures the amount of HCG in your urine. Menstrual blood does not affect this level or measurement. If positive, pregnancy is the most likely possibility. At age 48 it would best to be seen to determine if the period could be a miscarriage.
