How accurate are planned parenthood pregnancy tests?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It should tell you on the box or there may be a little slip of paper that came with it and it may be on there. I don't know what brand you have, but I purchased one last year and it said that the results were 99% accurate. I took it and got a positive result and it was accurate. Although, I do believe I remember reading that it is more likely for the test to give a False-positive rather than a false-negative if indeed it did give a false result.

How can you fix the problem of your body killing male sperm?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes you can, but it has to be done during or immediately after sex. Many people use spermicidal lubricant as an aid to another form of contraception like a diaphragm and put it on the outside of the condom or the penis. There are also spermicidal foams that are put inside the vagina and are in themselves a form of contraception, but are not as effective as the Pill or a condom.

What birth control pill brands do planned parenthood clinics offer eg. Yaz Seasonique...?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Every Planned Parenthood is different. Contact your local office to see what they carry. They may also be able to get you signed up for coverage for your birth control pills.

The Planned Parenthood here in Los Angeles (East Hollywood), DOES IN FACT prescribe Yaz, as that is what my soul mate and I have been using for over two years--expensive or not. And with regards to Renal or Kidney disease, being that as the previous author noted, that they do check for renal disease, it would therefore be safe to prescribe to those that have happy kidneys.

Are abortions right?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

=== === * In terms of safety for the woman, there's nothing wrong with it. As compared to birth, it's safer and healthier for the woman. In the most objective sense, it is right: it causes no harm to the living, breathing, thinking people who have a personal identity and are aware of themselves. * Some people don't want their daughters being a mother at a young age. Some people think it's right and others don't. Everyone has a different opinion. * There is a huge debate over this and some feel it's right and other people don't. It's an individuals decision. This is such a touchy subject and some doctors and people who work in abortion clinics have been killed for what they do. I don't agree fully with abortion, but feel a woman's body is her own so if she is raped, gets pregnant or is raped by a father, brother, step-father, etc., then I could understand a young woman wanting an abortion. The trauma of what they have been through is already hard to bare, and then to look at that child later will bring back nothing but a flood of memories and as far as I'm concerned carry the genes of the father of that child and who needs more dysfunctional people in the world. * Abortion is not birth control and never should be used as a birth control method. It's an easy way out. I believe that abortion laws should be legal, but it should go before several doctors, the case studied in a rapid manner (as the abortion should be done ASAP) and if a young woman continued to get pregnant and makes no effort to use birth control methods then she should be rejected from abortion or told if she does come in for this last abortion her tubes will be tied! * This is a moral question that people must answer for themselves. If you believe that an unborn baby is a human being with its own DNA and heartbeat, you might be inclined to believe terminating it is wrong. If your view is that it is not human because it is not breathing or have an awareness of itself, then it might be right. There is no clear answer here.
