HPT VS BLOOD TEST

Post by branda »

HI ladies, I called my RE today for advice and they told me that they do not believe in urine test because of the controversy they had with patients in the past and that blood test is more accurate. My Re told me that they have had patients who did HPT with 5times positve results, which turned out negative with blood test. Also, had patients with negative HPT with positive blood test. My Re is specialized on fertility only, with 25years experience, more expensive than my first failed IVF clinic.

I'm not trying to frighten anyone, but just want to know if anyone has ever heard such thing before?

please, kindly reply!

I've heard of false positives when people test to early. I've know several people who have taken HPT's (myself included) and we've all gotten accurate results. You just need to make sure that your HSG shot has cleared your system. They are extremely accurate when used properly!
