A pregnancy blood test or a pregnancy serum test is a test that measures the exact amount of the pregnancy hormone, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), in the bloodstream of a woman to detect pregnancy. |

blood test is accurate than pregnancy test. In fact, the researchers had expected to find urine pregnancy tests as accurate as blood tests. |

As i read that Henry Ford Hospital now uses blood pregnancy tests as the standard for women less than four weeks past the date of their expected menstrual period. Thus blood test is more accurate than pregnancy test. |
