Has anyone ever tried the home pregnancy tests from the dollarstore?

Question

no i haven't missed yet, only on day 16ish, i was just curious because i saw them at the dollarstore, and wish i could have been able to get them in the past, i may need one soon though, because i am ttc, and took serophene this cycle. thank you

Answer 1

Yes, they work up until the expiration date.

Answer 2

I buy the ones at save-a-lot never had a problem with them untill of late. I got 2 positives with the 2.99 ones being well. One faint the next very positive. I went to the doctor 3 days later and got 2 negatives urine and one negative blood. Even if a misscarriage would still show up in blood at 3 days later. Have not had any abortions no misscarriage and am late with period. I'm still in the wait and see mode. I did the dollar ones first U-check and it was negative the 2.99 ones came back positive tho. strange The U-check would of been early tho.

Maybe I better switch to the dollar store brands. LOL will update as I find out.

Can a negative blood test mean your not pregnant. Not nessaraly.

There are two types of blood tests you can get from a health care provider, a quantitative and a qualitative blood test. A quantitative blood test (or the beta hCG test) measures the exact amount of hCG in the blood and it can pick up very small amounts of hCG. This makes it a very accurate test. A qualitative hCG blood test gives a simple yes or no answer to whether you are pregnant and in terms of its accuracy this test is more like a urine test. Only those drugs that have the pregnancy hormone hCG in them can give a false positive test result. This means that tests says you are pregnant when you actually are not.

Answer 3

Yes, I have. I used them a couple of times when I thought I might be pregnant and got negative results, which were correct both times.
I used one another time and got a positive result 5 days before my period was due. That result was correct, as I tested at the doctor's office and got a positive there as well. I ended up losing that pregnancy a few weeks later.
The last time I used a dollar store test, it was another positive, also 5 days before my period was due. Again, I got a positive at the doctor's office. This time the baby made it and he is now a happy, healthy 4 month old.
So save yourself a few dollars and use a dollar store home pregnancy test if you need one. Believe me, I know from experience, they work very well.

Answer 4

I have and they have never been wrong which all have been negative.

Surprisingly, cheap tests purchased at dollar stores or on the Internet are often more sensitive and reliable than expensive store brands. HPT's are like soda: very cheap to make, and marked up quite a bit for retail
