Urine Test Vs Blood Test
Posted: 12-04-04 18:16pm

I went to the birth control clinic to do a pregnancy test.. And all they got me to do was pee in a cup.. I could have done that at home and pissed on a stick lol... If I go to my doctors would he do a blood test or would he do the same type of thing? Do blood tests results come in asap or do u have to wait??? Which is better?

I think that blood test are better even thought its a 48 hour waiting period. A blood test can detect pregnancy at an early age the an hpt... Some women can never get a positive result from urine and still be pregnant...I took a blood test because I didn't know if I was pregnant..Two days later the test came back positive I just found out that im pregnant...It also saves alot of money...Hpt's can be expensive at times..
