Are pregnancy tests accurate? It’s a great question that we had this week on our Facebook page, unfortunately, there is not a hard and fast answer. We know from research that on average women take 3 pregnancy tests when determining if they are pregnant and some women will continue to test even after a blood test at the doctor just to be sure it’s still there….
The majority of pregnancy tests sold in stores are 99.9% accurate, which means that 1 in 1000 tests will be wrong in the information they give you if you use them correctly, so there can be merit to taking more than one test.
Our research shows that women take 3 tests on average, usually 2 analogue and 1 digital, but lots of you feel guilty taking that many.
