How accurate are home pregnancy tests if you used one first thing in the morning and two days later you used one at night and they both said positive?

85% accuracy is common for pregnancy tests, if all steps are followed precisely. Two tests showing the same result should mean about 98% accuracy. But only if the same mistakes were not made during both test procedures.

∙ 8y agoPregnancy Tests recommend using the first morning urine only because that is when your urine would be at the highest concentration for the pregnancy hormone. However, the pregnancy hormone is present in the urine at any time during the day or night. So a test at night can be just as positive as a positive in the morning. It has nothing to do with time of day, but instead, how much hormone is detectable in the urine same sample.
