Analgesics and anti-inflammatories should not affect the result of the pregnancy test - it specifically detects the hormone secreted in pregnancy. A blood or urine pregnancy test may indicate a false positive result when chorionic gonadotropin is in the patient's body for a reason other than the current pregnancy: just after childbirth, miscarriage or abortion, in connection with the intake of fertility support drugs containing gonadotropin in the composition and with a rare type of ovarian cyst producing this hormone. Testing for the level of chorionic gonadotropin from blood in the laboratory does not require special preparation. When testing from urine using a home test, follow the recommendations of the test manufacturer.
