Where to Get Pregnancy Tests

You can buy home pregnancy tests at local pharmacies and drugstores such as Walgreens or Longs. No prescription is required. Test kits cost between $7.99 and $19.99.  You can also buy tests online.

You can have a urine or blood test performed in the doctor’s office. Urine tests in the doctor’s office have about the same accuracy as home pregnancy tests (99% accurate when performed correctly). Blood tests are slightly more accurate and are recommended if you are unsure about your home pregnancy test results, if you are undergoing fertility treatment, or if your doctor suspects a problem such as ectopic pregnancy. Prices for tests in the doctor’s office vary by consultation and lab fees.
