What To Do If Dettol Test Is Showing Positive But Blood Test Is Showing Negative For Pregancy?
Hi there I would like to know, i've done the dettol test a few times now, and it shows positive than i went for a blood test but that shows negative. My friend also did the dettol test and her result did have the same look as mine and she was pregnant, is it that my hormone counting is to low on the blood test that's why it's not showing. Ani

Hi,
Thanks for the wuery. I understand your concern.
Fettol test does not have any scientific basis.you shoulf always relay on home pregnsncy test of urine done after 8 fays delay in pregnancy.OR blood hcg test around expected date of menses.
UYou are true in guessing about low hormone count when blood yest is -ve.. but even htp is going to be -ve with low hormone counts.
Do relay on dvientigic methofs please.
Thsnks.
