A member asked:

If you are forced to pee for a pregnacy test at the docs can the test resualts come out wrong?

Very accurate test: The urine pregnancy test is very accurate (97%). A positive test almost always means you are actually pregnant. A negative test can sometimes be falsely negative if the test was done too early in the pregnancy.
