Teak, Lizzie, et.al- Home Access Reliability

I have tested negative at 3, 4, 6 and now at 8 weeks. I have been using the Home Access kit for this. (I send the blood sample to the lab). I understand that this is FDA approved and reliable. What is your feeling?

Also, with an 8 week negative, should I be feeling optimistic? ( I know to test at 3 months).

Thanks. This is quite the ordeal.

As long as you understand you need to retest at 3 months to obtain a conclusive negative result.

you can trust your 8 week result using the home access test.  an 8 week test is a GREAT indicator of your status...but as you know...4 more weeks for that conclusive result.

Yup, an 8 week negative is a VERY positive result (see what I did there?).

Still get tested at 12 weeks, but rest assured the likelihood of your status changing is very very low.
