Those cheap hpt's
| Sun, 08-10-2003 - 4:57pm |
I bought some of those 99 cent hpt's off of a website but I was wondering if anyone knows anything about their reliability??? It seems like if they were accurate nobody would spend ten times as much in the drugstore. They are a little more inconvenient because you have to pee in a cup, but other than that they are just as easy as the kind you purchase from the drustore. Does anyone know if they work?

Best of luck to everyone!
You can actually go online at Ebay at get them from the same company for even cheaper...
Lots of luck to everyone, and I'll keep you posted if I get a BFP from one.

I bought a bunch of these from earlypregnancytests.com and gave some to a friend (who is now pregnant). She tested after AF was 2 days late and got a BFN with my 'cheap' test, then got a BFP with the Target brand test. Another friend had the exact same experience, she is now 5w pregnant and never got a positive test with the cheap tests. I will try them, but since I've known women who got false negatives, I won't rely on them. Hope this helps.

Thanks for letting me know about your experiences with this test. It is supposed to measure a very low concentration of HCG. Well, at least I only paid $6!
