A member asked:

I took a pregnancy test yesterday and it was negative. today i took another, and it was positive. which one should i trust?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The positive one: The negative test can miss a pregnancy, but the positive one is almost always right if the test is done properly. Retest in a few days to be certain.
