How Long The Urine Can Be Stored, Considering That It Would Give An Accurate Pregnancy Result ?
Can i use NOT the first morning urine in pregnancy test? I m more than 2 weeks delayed. I use pregnancy test on the 1st week, negative. All in all, i took 3 tests, all negative, I m planning to do another test on Sunday, can i use NOT the 1st morning urine? How accurate is it? if not. can i store my urine in a container and i will use it for the pregnancy test? will it affect the result if it is not the fresh urine? i can t do the test on our house, that s why i cant use the 1st morning urine.

Hi
U can use anytime urine but since the morning sample is more concentrated it is more likely to giv results.it wud b better to use fresh urine sample passed later in the day than the stored morning sample .better confirmation can b done by blood beta hcg test or an ultrasound.
Hope i cud help.
Thnx
