Blood or protein in the urine may cause false-positive pregnancy results. Urine hCG tests may give a false-negative result if the urine is too diluted or if testing is done too soon in the pregnancy. Certain drugs such as diuretics and promethazine (an antihistamine) may cause false-negative urine results.
A human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) urine test is a pregnancy test. A pregnant womanâs placenta produces hCG, also called the pregnancy hormone. If youâre pregnant, the test can usually detect this hormone in your urine about 10 days after your first missed period. This is when the fertilized egg attaches to the uterine wall. During the first eight to 10 weeks of pregnancy, hCG levels normally increase very rapidly.
