Which HPT's detect the lowest level of HCG? I have taken 4 tests since Friday and all but one have came back negative. The one that actually showed anything, the line is soooooo faint I am not sure if its even a line or an evap line. :confused

I remember with my twins my HCG levels were so low it took 9 tests and I was a little over 2 months along to show anything. So I am just trying to figure out if any of you ladies know which test would be best and when do you think would be the best time to retest?
I know I would have conceived on the 12th of Aug if I am. My period was due between the 17-23 time frame. So I would only be like 2 1/2 weeks along. Is that too early to detect anything?:dunno

I tested positive on the first day I missed my period (2 weeks). The early response ones are supposed to detect the lower amounts.

I detected this pregnancy before I was even late. I used a generic from the NEX and then I used the EPT digital and it showed pregnant

Once your period is due most tests should detect it. Did you use first morning urine? That is usually the strongest!

It looks like you could be up to 17DPO, about 3-4 days late depending on your lutenal phase and still not get a positive. :dunno Hope that helps :D

Well I know for sure if I did conceive, it would have been ON the 12th of Aug. So I could be no more then 2 1/2 weeks. I usually ovulate anywhere from 6-10 days before my period is due. My cycle is so screwy :mumble

Oh well... I give up lol. I think I will just wait for my next cycle and see what happens. If nothing still then I will just go into the dr.
