How can you tell if a pregnancy test is right or wrong?

They are accurate: These days, home pregnancy tests that you can buy at the store are very accurate. You should be able to trust what it is telling you. If you are concerned, you can also ask your doctor to order a blood test for the pregnancy hormone (beta-hcg).

Things to ponder: Urine pregnancy tests react to chemicals made by the new conception attached in the womb. Even simple OTC teats available in dollar stores are more likely false negative than false positive. You get false negative when done too soon or a bad test. If any show positive consider it most likely true. A back up blood test can verify the positive & start prenatal care.
