  • Boy, aren't those guys who read the drug tests gonna be surprised when you (a guy?) show positive for pregnancy?

    • What a stupid response. You don't know if this person is male or female first of all, no indication their sister is pregnant, and if your job secretly tested you for pregnancy under the guise of a drug test, that's illegal. If they did do that, they'd certainly not inform you of the results as you'd then have ironclad grounds for a lawsuit against your employer and the testing lab.

      • No but they do test the urine to make sure it's actually the gender you are. At least where I'm from they do and it's standard.

        • How? Why? It must be real cheap and easy to do. It still doesn't make much sense though.

          • Yes it is. Hormone levels. Women have more estrogen. And pregnant women have hCG.

            And I think where I am is so common for people to try and cheat the system that they check. It also has to be a certain temperature or it's an automatic fail.

              • No they have estrogen. In the teenage years they have very low levels and high testosterone levels. As men age their estrogen levels rise. Men with more fat have more estrogen because it is stored in your fat cells.
