Alot of over the counter tests are pretty accurate as long as you follow directions carefully. If you dont trust yourself to do it right then go to your local health department (they do not tell anyone no matter what your age ) although i strongly suggest you tell your parents and get checked for other things as well. Im assuming if you are then they'll find out eventually anyways.

I dont know where you live but there is a place called planned parent hood and they do everything confidentially until you are ready for your parents to know. Blood test is the best way to firgure out if you are pregnant or not but if you want to get an over the counter test I would suggest buying ept (early pregnany test) its pretty much the best test out there thats over the counter. I wish you luck.

OTC pregnancy tests work very well. In my experience you don't need to get a blood test. You can go to a clinic, most of the time teens can get planned parenting services for free and with out the knowledge of their parents.

over the counter tests work. make sure you at least wait 3 weeks before taking the test.

you dont need a blood test, you can buy any over the counter urine pregnancy kit test... they test for the presence of HCG ( human chorionic gonadotrphin ) which becomes positive as early as two weeks after conception...they are quite sensitive...
good luck... PS im a MD

as long as you wait untill the day your period is due a urine test should work fine, although you can get fake negatve tests it is highly unlikely to get a fake positive one!
