A member asked:

Can a qualitative hcg serum blood test be incorrect? it says that no hcg was detected or less than 1. can it be incorrect and can i possibly be preg?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible: If you test too early the test may be negative; the test only measures what is present in the blood, if you test too early, you could be pregnant but HCG level has not reached above the 5 units that is the cut off level for diagnosis of pregnancy.
