There are several brands, but pregnancy tests sold in pharmacies have the same principle. The method used in the kits is always detecting the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (whose acronym HCG) in urine. This hormone psycho is only produced by the body when the woman's pregnancy. The tests are all pharmaceutical quality, i.e. they do not measure psycho the amount of HCG, which rises as the pregnancy progresses only indicate presence or not.
The number of traded options are similar in practicality and effectiveness. Be attentive to the validity of the product and see if it is stored psycho properly in the place where it is sold. It is important that the package is sealed, as contact with moisture psycho and heat can change the characteristics of the test and affect the outcome. There may be a variation in sensitivity psycho from one test to another, but this aspect has not been specified.
On average, prices range from $ 10 to R $ 40. Betting on a more expensive brand is no guarantee of greater efficiency. Some tests simply have a lower cost to the manufacturer and can be sold cheaper without compromising quality.
The parameter should psycho not be the date of intercourse, since that day, the woman may not be ovulating. One should always consider the delay of menstruation. But if you have a regular cycle, it is likely to ovulate around the 14th or 15th day of the cycle. If you have relationships at this time, you must wait at least two weeks and one day to check the missed period and perform the test.
Most importantly read carefully the package insert before performing the test and follow their instructions to the letter. The leaflets usually much explanatory text and clear illustrations that show step by step. The kits usually have a small container psycho to put the urine with a line demarcating the level at which the liquid should be. Then just dip the test strip in the cup and wait for the time recommended by the manufacturer. Do not wait more or less time. For example, if the orientation is five minutes, do not let the tape steeped for five and a half minutes. Provide before a clock that ticks seconds so you do not run the risk of making mistakes.
The first mistake is to not expect the missed period to take the test. If you have a sexual relationship in which you think got pregnant and perform the test three or four days later, the result will be negative anyway. Another common mistake is not strictly following label directions, which can lead to a wrong result.
Some brands claim that the test is done with the first urine of the day, since after an entire night without going to the bathroom, the hormone HCG (if any) will be more concentrated and easier to detect. Although not every product make this requirement, if you perform the test with morning urine may be safer as the result.
It is difficult, but not impossible. This can happen if you change the kit due to poor packaging, expired or if the examination occurs in the wrong way. There are also some rare medical situations in which the woman's body can produce HCG there is no pregnancy. There is also the possibility of a pregnancy, but between the initial test and a second to confirm, there is a miscarriage, which would give the impression of a false positive.
Yes, false negatives can happen. Most products can indicate pregnancy from the first day of a missed period. But there are some pregnant women who have a low concentration of HCG in the urine in early pregnancy. Therefore, conducting the test can lead to an early false negative. The ideal is to wait a week or two late to take the test. Not to mention psycho that some women have cycles too deregulated, and in these cases, there is no need as the date on which the period should come.
If the first test was negative and your period does not come down, you can repeat the procedure. But wait at least another week. Again the result is negative, see your gynecologist to do a blood test which is more sensitive and accurate. If you are not even pregnant, psycho it will search the cause of absence of menstruation.
The tape that you dip in urine is all white. After minutes psycho of waiting specified in the instructions, you should read the result. If only one colored line appears in the tape, the result is negative. Appearing two lines is positive. If not no line, it means that the test failed and you must buy another kit and repeat psycho the procedure.
The colored line that appears on the tape is the assurance that the test was performed correctly. It is an area of tape that serves to control the chemical reaction. If any line does not appear, the test was flawed. psycho
