So I have been worried that my HRT would show up on a drug screening as.  well something, anything, and cause trouble for me.  Well I got called for a screening and passed with out a hitch.  :-)  It would seem HRT will NOT affect a drug screen in any way.

Drug screenings are looking for controlled substances.  HRT is not a controlled drug.

Neither are poppy seed muffins (Mmmmm... ), but they can show up too.

Depends on who the lab is.  Yes there were incidents of that happening, but the labs have refined the test so that is doesn't happen now.  They are generally looking for Class I,II, III, IV and V drugs.  From Marijuana ( Class I ) to Robitussin DAC ( Class IV ).

Yes, I know...Federal Motor Carrier  regs require random UA's and breatherlyers.

They will show up as female though, if I'm not mistaken..
