hi doctor, my wife mens is due last July 17, 2010. she is 11 days late now. we took pregnancy test last july 24,25 and 26 and it was all positive. Prior to this she underwent some infertilty workup due to polycystic ovarian syndrome. She was prescribed to take clomid last cycle. With the result of preganacy test, is she on 5 week pregnant? how accurate was the home preganacy test could it be real? hope you could help us.
Hello sir, and I hope I can help you today. A urine pregnancy test that you purchase has the same accuracy as one performed in the doctor's office. It does not determine how far along the pregnancy is, however, but it can be detected positive within 4 weeks from the first day of the last menstrual period. So what that means is- congratulations! Your wife is indeed pregnant after three positive tests, so you should contact her doctor who prescribed the closed to you, so she may get a proper ultrasound to see how far along she is. Again, I wish you the best for the pregnancy and I hope I answered your question adequately today. Best wishes,
