- What is the best time to do a pregnancy test to get a reliable result?
The best time to do a pregnancy test is about a week after the expected date of menstruation. Most pregnancy tests claim an "accuracy exceeding 99 percent" and insinuate that can use the test on the day that misses the period, but a study published in 2004 in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology showed that these statements are misleading. concentration of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) - a hormone measured by pregnancy tests - the urine any day after implantation can vary greatly from woman to woman. Researchers at the University of New Mexico evaluated 18 trials and concluded that only a (First Response Early Result) consistently showed a sensitivity sufficient to detect levels of hCG that most probably pregnant present on the first day after the missed period. sensitivity of most other tests could only detect about 16% of pregnancies at that time.
- What can I do to get the best results from a pregnancy test?
Firstly, check the validity of the test and make sure it is in good condition. If you saved the test in a moist or hot (like the house-suite), it is possible that has deteriorated, so throw it away and get a new test. When you're ready to take the test, read the instructions carefully, since vary depending on the brand of test. For best results, take the test first thing in the morning when your urine is more concentrated. If the test give a negative result and still not have your period, wait a few more days or a week and try again. A negative result does not always mean you are not pregnant. If menstruation does not appear at the scheduled time, remember that you can still be pregnant (do not rush to have a drink or do other things that may endanger pregnancy).
Am I even pregnant even if the strip has a very light color?
If the test show a positive result, even if the strap is very clear, there are good chances of being pregnant. For a home pregnancy test show a positive result, your body must be producing detectable levels of hCG and it only happens after a pregnancy. Many women get a result "somewhat" positive if less time to pregnancy than they thought. To be sure, take another test after two or three days. If you get a positive result more evident, congratulations. If the second test is decidedly negative, you may have suffered a miscarriage early in the pregnancy. Experts estimate that about 20 to 30 percent of all pregnancies are not evolutionary, that is, unfortunately, quite common.
