Very accurate. It counts the number of molecules of HCG.

The results are very highly accurate in what they are testing for, which is the pregnancy hormone.
The only other thing I know of that can produce that hormone is an ovarian cyst.
False negatives are more common than false positives, but if you have a positive result odds are high you are pregnant.

Very accurate. They are better then urine but just to be sure i would get both a urine and blood test to be sure.
