early pregnant test

The best Home Pregnancy Test is the one that gives the result instantly. Clear instructions are given on the kit, on how to do the tests. Some of the pregnancy tests kits use + or – signs to indicate the result. Beware of cheap Home Pregnancy Test, sold in plastic bags. Modern pregnancy tests check the level of hormone, HCG in the urine and this is the most sensitive indicator of pregnancy and gives you accurate and early results.

A test that gives you vague results is bad. There are kits which give you accurate and instant results. Patience is virtue, but not when it comes to pregnancy test. So if your Home Pregnancy Test is positive, then it is better to consult your doctor and follow his advice.

These tests are safe to take as well as very useful. If a woman gets pregnant, it’s good if she knows it from the beginning. Safe pregnancy is very important.

Are Pregnancy Tests Accurate?

Although most of the pregnancy tests make tall claims of being 9%-99% accurate it is a misleading fact. Moreover the accuracy of pregnancy tests depends largely on the methodology and technique used in the lab.

Although at Home Pregnancy Test claims 97%-99% accuracy, not following instructions given in the kit will maximize inaccuracy. Recent studies have revealed that of 18 products tested, first response early result -a brand was the most sensitive brand and detected pregnancy in 95% women. Clear blue came second in the sensitivity test study.

Blood test is even more effective than urine test as it can detect even lower level of hormone. Some of the things that affect accurate pregnancy test are: – fertility drugs, HCG containing medicines. But birth control pills, antibiotics and allergy medications don’t affect the pregnancy test.

Improper testing, double checking also leads to inaccuracy and ambiguity.

The results from these tests may or may not be accurate. The accuracy of these tests depends on various factors. Some of the tests lack in research background.

False Positive Pregnancy Test

False positive pregnancy test basically means HCG was detected in the urine. False pregnancy is rear by do occur. If you have done the Home Pregnancy Test and result shows positive, we blindly accept it, after all pregnancy tests are supposed to be 99% accurate. Double checking the result could also give you false positive pregnancy test. Reading after the stipulated time could result in inaccuracy.

If your pregnancy test result is positive consult your doctor immediately, sometimes certain types of cancer like chorocarcinama, ovarian, breast cancer can cause increase in the level of HCG, thus leading to false positive pregnancy test.

The container where urine needs to be collected should be free of detergent or soap deposits; this could result in false positive pregnancy test.

Thus there are many chances of false positive pregnancy test results. The presence or absence of proteins in the urine or blood may cause the pregnancy test strips to change color.
