Does it matter what test brand you use?

Question

Negative on dollar store test should i go buy a first response? 3 days late 16dpo

Answer

If you're 3 days late the cheapie should've picked it up by now. 🤔 But definitely double check with a first response.

Answer

No. All tests have to meet the same standards.

Answer

Nope, I used some ultra cheapies by pregmate. Brand doesn't matter

Answer

I was 2days late according to glow and Premom and took a dollar store and came back positive

Answer

Depending on the hcg level in your system will make the difference in the test used. The dollar tests are just as good as the others and some women actually get a clearer positive on them before a FRER (which is weird because FRER claim to detect as low as 6.2 miu). Some doctors actually say to wait until you’re 7-10 days late before testing for more accurate results. I would continue to test but keep in mind there are many reasons one can be late outside of pregnancy. Wishing you the best!
