Is this HPT reliable?

[Newj]

I used Accu-Clear at 6dp5dtr and got two pink lines immediately. It has been 13 days since I took the HCG shot. I did some research on this HPT and was not too impressed. Can HPT detect LH and come up positive? I'm thinking of buying another brand and test again tomorrow.

Thanks

according to this website, it's a good brand- sounds good to me

I used accu-clear the first time I tested and got a faint,faint line. I have now gone back and used some Store-brand style E.P.T knockoffs and gotten dark lines.
So they all gave me the same result. Today I am 8dp5dt

I think 2 lines is as good a result as you are going to get!!!

congrats,

Sounds all good to me! You could try a FRED or a ClearBlue easy digital!

HPT's are basically all the same, try the Digital clear blue if you are uncertain.

2 lines is 2 lines

Hi ladies

I took another HPT this am which is the same brand from yesterday because I had two sticks. today is 7dp5dt and 14 days past HCG shot. I got two lines again but I was worried because the line was like yesterday afternoon. I wanted it to be darker.

Newj,

What I'd always heard is that HPTs are qualitative tests, not quantitative--which in plain English means that they show that you have the quality of being pregnant (yes/no) versus the quantity of pregnancy, so to speak, as in "how pregnant" you are. I did the same thing--peeing on multiple sticks each day, and was depressed when I wasn't "more pregnant" from day to day : ) If it's any consolation, I had only a faint line long after my HCG had been tested by blood to be over 7,000. Besides, 13 days after trigger you might throw a 4 by blood, and your urine metabolites would be MUCH lower. Plus, the lowest threshold HPTs I've ever heard of test to 20 mL, and most are 45 mL.

I say you're pregnant--YIPPEE!!

sounds good to me. Best of luck to you!

Newj-My lines weren't getting darker and some were even getting lighter and I freaked out and told my husband it was a chemical pregnancy. We were a mess...and my first beta was 434! I DEFINITELY learned then that the color of the line means nothing.

Anyone get a negative with home test and get positive beta? If I do give in and test and get a negative I want to hold out hope! Thanks.
