Question

Is it possible to be too far along for it to pick up on a pregnancy test?

Answer

The Hook Effect In Pregnancy Tests

The Hook Effect is essentially when the test antibodies are overwhelmed by the introduced antigen and are unable to bind to the antibodies.

To make this easier to understand, and to apply it's relevance to testing for pregnancy, basically what this means is that the Hook Effect occurs when the levels of HCG are so high in a pregnant women, that they can not be bound to the test antibodies and therefore the test is unable to process effectively.

The levels of HCG need to be extremely high for this to occur and this can happen between 8-10 weeks, or earlier in multiples pregnancies, before the HCG begins to level out again later in pregnancy.

When the Hook Effect occurs, you will get either a very faint positive on a pregnancy test, despite having darker positive lines previously, or you may get a complete false negative with no line what so ever. The test just hasn't been able to deal with the high levels of HCG and is giving you false results.
