Best Test - August 18th 2011, 10:36 PM

Alright. So, I am wondering whether or not any of you have a suggestion for the best pregnancy test.

My OB doctor is very busy because she is one of the best in the area. I feel like I should go to a walk-in clinic and find out, but I am having trouble due to the fact that I don't really know my insurance information due to the fact that I am under my parents insurance. So, I mean should I try to find the card and everything, but I feel like if I did I would be stealing.

What do you all think?

Generally, you cannot use their card. It normally won't have your name on it and they have to sign. Also, they can get bills stating there was a doctor visit, but nothing from them is owed. So if you are trying to keep it from them, then I do not think you should use the card.

Most doctor visits are fairly cheap (walk-ins). They usually are under $100, including a test. There are pregnancy testing centers which will do the test for free, no charge. You may look into that.

Here is a nice chart on sensitivity. The lower the number, the better. Keep in mind, if you have elevated hormone levels for some other reason, you might get a false positive so you need to follow up with a doctor anyways.


So you have gray hair and you're only 26

that's just another reason I love you...

My parents' card has my name on it... You should check. Some funds do and I know our national one does as well...
