Can drinking a lot of water to help you "pee" for a test aftect the results?? I drank 2 bottles of water an hour before my test yesterday, so i could make sure i could go at the doc's office will too much water in a sitting affect the test?? Just Curious if that makes a difference?

TIA

I have read on a lot of home pregnancy tests that you aren't supposed to consume a lot of liquids prior to testing. This can dilute the HCG in your urine. You are also not supposed to urinate at least 2 hours before doing a urine test.

Hope this helps!
