A member asked:

What does a question mark mean on a first response yes or no pregnancy test?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not enough Hormone: The test relies on the presence of a pregnasncy hormone to be positive. If ther is a question, then there is not enough hormone to be sure. Wait 1 week, and test a first morning urine specimen, or have a lab do a serum pregnancy test.
