A member asked:
My doctor said 4 weeks is too early to detect pregnancy, she wants me to test when is be six weeks. why is that?

Pregnancy test: This may be to avoid inaccuracies in the results. However, newer urine pregnancy tests can be positive several days before missing your cycle if you are pregnant. If there is any concern, blood testing, which is significantly more accurate can be done.
