I heard somewhere that men have the hormones in their urine that make pregnancy tests positive, is this true? I know it's random but I was just wondering.

If a man takes a pregnancy test and it's positive, that's a sign of prostate cancer.

answer: A neglected era (amenorrhea) in someone who has consistently had wide-spread classes is in many situations the first signal of being pregnant. It each so often takes truly some days previous the neglected era before the living house being pregnant attempt will change into efficient, so that you want to to repeat it. Your nicely-being practitioner might want to also do a blood hCG hormone attempt, that is higher reliable and can want to change into efficient about 10 or so days after ovulation. maximum docs advise that you wait till the first day of your neglected era before taking a house being pregnant attempt. that is in many situations round 2 weeks after theory. even although, some checks are more desirable delicate (and bigger intense priced) than others and can want to be taken before. Concentrations of hCG are stated in milliInternational units (mIU) or parts equivalent to at least a million/1000th of an IU in holding with milliliter. A being pregnant attempt with a sensitivity of 20 IU/L is higher delicate than one with 50 IU/L.

No. Pregnancy tests detect Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) it is a hormone found only in a pregnant woman's urine.

Yeah, that was on a Grey's Anatomy episode. I forget what was actually wrong with the guy that caused it, though. Some kind of tumor. Apparently the HCG can also be a tumor marker.

http://www.peeonastick.com/ has some notes about a flawed test giving positive results even for men.
Not exactly an answer to your question re. hormones, but still amusing.
