How come hpt's have an expiry date??
What happens if you use them after the date??
Would they give a false positive? False negative?

anyone?
:bump:
Doesn't matter anymore, got my hands on a first response test ;)
Sorry I didn't see this earlier but have you checked out a website called peeonastick dot com - they have anything and everything you could ever want to know about HPTs, photographs, weird experiments, the works. It is a great site.
I have no idea why they would expire. Maybe it's because they aren't as sensitive after a while?
Oooh, I hope you have some good news to share soon ;)
I think that after the expiry date you can't truat their results. Can't wait to hear some exciting news from you!!!
Yeah, that's what I was thinking, but I did 3 of them, LOL, and they all said the same thing...which I think would be unlikely if they weren't working properly iykwim ;) But DH got me some FRER on the way home anyway which I did! No idea when AF is meant to be due though and I think it might be in the next few days so just waiting now jic...:
:D :D
ETA- btw shhhhhhhhhh.......especially if you have me on FB :shhh: lol
ooo best of luck huni....lol. xox
I've used an expired HPT and OPK test before and both gave me correct results (BFP) and they were about one year out of date.
GL!
lol yeah one was 2 years out of date and the other two, one year! LOL
Ooooh, sounds a bit promising Heaven :D.
I hope to see a new thread started by you in the PA area soon ;)
