Are Cheap Pregnancy Tests Accurate?
Posted: 02-24-06 15:40pm

Hi
this month we tried to have baby, and I am assuming I ‘m pregnant.
Actually I am late almost 3 days, and my breasts are also sore.

I got 5 times pregnancy test, all came negative, I should say, I did with cheap pregnancy test, anyway. My period is always regular.

Is it possible this kind of test is not accurate, should I try the expensive kind, or is better to see my doctor.

Please give me some advice.

Thanks

I used the cheap kind and it worked just fine but maybe since you are only 3 days late u should wait a week and try again

i agree, wait a week and try again. If it's still negative with no period go to the doc and get a blood test done.

It's funny how people think that price makes a difference...
