I wouldn't use them. You never know. I'd rather use a fresh one for peace of mind.

Re: Pregnancy test expired

I would prob use them up to a month or two after but wouldn't solely rely on them. They would prob work ok but more likely to give you a false negative after some time

I'd use them if they were stored properly. If in doubt, just buy new ones as backup. But for most things, expiration dates aren't the last day that something is good. It is usually good for quite a while longer.

That being said, I would not use it a year after it expired. But a month or two should be ok.

Re: Pregnancy test expired

I used expired OPKs and they were inaccurate. I should mention though... that they had been expired for over a year at that point Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Pregnancy test expired

I used an expired test and got a bfp.

I would say you can use it on the days where you really want to test on days 8dpo, 9dpo etc because you're kind of wasting them on those days anyway. If you get a +, double check with a newer test.
