If they are taken accurately, yes. According to the ClearBlue pregnancy test accuracy results they are: 4 days before expected period= 51% accurate

3 days before expected period= 82% accurate

2 days before expected period= 90% accurate

1 day before expected period =95% accurate

the day of expected period =99% accurate

I just went to a free clinic this week, after getting a positive pregnancy test on a Walgreens' digital home test, and five faint positive on different brands of +/- tests, all unfortunately in blue dye. (Recently discovered the blue dye has a bad rep for falsies) My two pee tests a the clinic were negative, so I payed twenty dollars for blood work. I am having symptoms up the you -know of pregnancy, and think I am sure of my conception date, which was a little less than fourteen days ago. I have been pregnant before, so I think that I am pregnant, and that the clinic ones are not sensitive enough to the HCG, and I don't care if they said it was below 5. I had so many psuedo positives and a "pregnant" digital, I got excited, and am waiting it out to feel heartbroken- at least until my symptoms go away. -Liz D

A year and test at the doctors office is the same accuracy as good over-the-counter pregnancy tests at the drugstore, however, blood tests at the doctors office are much more accurate than urine tests at both the doctors office or at home. With that said, blood tests can produce a false negative if it is taken too early in the pregnancy! it happened to me! so if you think you may be pregnant and the blood test comes back negative don't drink or take any medications treat your body as if you are pregnant until you have another test and talk to your doctor.

no, i don't believe they are, because there are such things called "False pregnancies" that can have similar symptoms, but usually they are correct.
