Can polysistic kidney disease cause a fals pregnancy test ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No. : Pregnancy tests detect the presence of human chorionic gonodotropin (HCG) in the urine, which is not produced in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. False positives can occur in very rare cases of gynecologic tumors, so a confirmatory test with other test kits and the physician are necessary.
