how accurate are DR office pregnancy test?

Question

I went to the Dr today and they did a pregnancy test it was negative. I previously took 3 FRER test and were positive. I had a brand new FRER in my car. so I get upset and I was like I took 3 hpt they were all positive! so I get the one from the car I tell the MA I'm going to go POAS ..... it comes out positive. then they say it can still be nagative due to their test not detecting it!!! i was like FRER are very sensitive. so they drew blood to see hcg levels. I go back Wednesday morning at 9. I missed my period that was due Sunday... call me crazy but I smell everything! now they have me worrying that it can be negative or something is really wrong 😔 anyone have a similar situation? should I be worried?                         UPDATE!!!! ----- blood work came back positive ! Dr test are not as accurate

Answer

This happened to me last pregnancy. I was at the doctors office and the test was negative. I asked for a blood test and got the results in a couple of hours. I was indeed pregnant but the tests they use at the doctors office are very cheap. I’m sure you’ll get your answers soon. Try not to stress.

Omg, This happened to me last week!!!!! Now my frers have strong lines. Others have told me that the doctors tests are not as sensitive as frer, and they are the equivalent to Amazon cheapies. So don’t worry, if you got a positive then it’s positive! I was sooo worried and sad, but it was just too early to detect!! Test in a couple of days, or go back to the doctor in a couple of days. Congrats on your bfp!!!❤️❤️

This happened to me today. I went to the drs office for an appt and mentioned I had gotten a positive on a fr on Sunday. I peed in the cup and they said my test came back negative. My dr said it might just be too early since my period isn’t due for another 5 days

Answer

just happened to me yesterday! ugh I'm right here with you.  get my levels today then re draw tomorrow

Answer

same here! I took hpt last week and it was positive. go to the doctor and they said it was negative but that doesn't mean I'm not pregnant and to come back next week. they said the ones I have at home are probably more sensitive than theirs. so me, being the psycho that I am took a test every day to be sure I wasn't crazy lol went back and got it confirmed by doctors today. now I can rest easy and stop testing!😂😂😂

Answer

They probably have cheap tests that only pick up 25 mIU or more. FRER can pick up as low was 6 I believe.... you definitely have HCG in your system with a positive FRER. Hoping you get answers after your blood draw, and good luck!
