Accuracy of Preg. Test???

[bb13]

What is the accuracy of a pregnancy test when its taken 5 days after missed period around midday? The test says it is 99% but I dont really believe that is the case ALWAYS.

 

P.S.

It was negative.

keep takin the tests.. 3 days in between take about 4 i no thats actually over board.. but its not like theres a problem taking extra percaution.. this is exaclty what my frind did... she had one positive and 3 negative.. so it varied more negative.. well i dunno if that will help or not.. anyways..

It is not unheard of to get a pregnancy test that reads wrong. She should get another one and test first thing in the morning. If it still reads negative and she hasn't had her period then she needs to see her doctor just to make sure everything is okay.

False negatives happen quite often - another test is a good idea if she is still late.
