A member asked:
Can early home pregnancy tests give false negatives if you are late with your period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes that can happen: It can depend on the concentration of urine and if the test was done properly , a home test should be + at the time of the missed period, if it is _ and u think u are preg then u must have a blood preg test to know for sure.
