A member asked:
Is it possible for a women to be pregnant and for hcg to not be detected in both urine and blood?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Blood pregnancy tests are very sensitive and should detect very early pregnancies even before missing your period. It would be rare for the blood test not to pick up the HCG of pregnancy.
