A positive and a negative pregnancy test.

Dear Ask The Doctor: What do I do If I have a Postive home pregnancy test, but a negative urine test from the hospital?

Dear Samantha: A negative result on urine test can mean that you are not pregnant or there could have been a technical or lab error. In my opinion you should go for a blood human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone test, which is more reliable and accurate for the detection of pregnancy.
