Why the pregnancy test is showing different results?
Patient: HELLO DR. my wife had missed her periods, her periods were due on 9th dec. we have used paganews yesterday evening but it had shown negative result, again i hve heard from somewhere that it should be used in the morning, so i have used it today morning and the results were positive, so we have planned to visit a doctor nearby, today evening the doctor has done the same test again and it had came negative this time. what to do..? totally confused..? please help. Doctor: Hi ,How are you doing ?You have to confirm the pregnancy , urine test is not confirmatory. it can vary with time of the day, with the quality of the kit.Best way to confirm is Serum Beta HCG . It can diagnose the smallest of pregnancy & anywhere in the body.Urine test is positive at Beta HCG at 25iu/ml, even lower levels are detected by the serum beta HCG levelScan detects pregnancy only at 1500iu/mlHope I have clarified your query, do write back if any more queriesAll the best Dr.Balakrishnan
