Why is the ovulation test strip showing a positive result after pregnancy?

Pregnancy is a big deal, because pregnancy represents the fruit of love between men and women, and represents that a family is about to welcome a new member, so people attach great importance to pregnancy. Women want to get pregnant regardless of whether they are able to bear children or not. With the development of modern science, the ability to predict pregnancy in advance has gradually become stronger, especially with the emergence of ovulation test strips as a method to help pregnancy. However, it is common for some women to have a strong positive ovulation test result after becoming pregnant. Let's take a look at the introduction below.

Sometimes ovulation test strips also respond to early pregnancy. Therefore, before the early pregnancy test paper, the ovulation test paper had already detected early pregnancy. Why are pregnancy test strips not as early as ovulation test strips? Because nowadays early pregnancy test strips basically test βHCG, and the β content in HCG is much lower than α. When βHCG is only 50-100, αHCG has often reached about one or two thousand. The early pregnancy test paper is determined by βHCG, and the cross reaction is determined by αHCG, so the ovulation test paper will appear positive earlier than the early pregnancy test paper. But is it possible that the early pregnancy test can also detect ovulation? Impossible, the manufacture of early pregnancy test strips takes this into consideration and eliminates the occurrence of cross-reactions. Therefore, it can only detect HCG. Why must this be done? That's because when measuring ovulation, there is basically no HCG in the female body. Therefore, the ovulation test strip does not need to consider the effect of HCG on it; when using the early pregnancy test strip, there is already a certain amount of LH in the female body, so the early pregnancy test strip must first eliminate the influence of LH on it.

Don’t use ovulation test strips to test for early pregnancy! Because that will only increase your tension. The fact that the ovulation test strip does not show a weak positive does not mean that you are not pregnant, because cross-reaction is not inevitable. A positive ovulation test does not mean that you are pregnant, because it may be that your LH has not completely withdrawn, or it may be a cross-reaction with FSH. Moreover, even if it is really a cross reaction of αHCG, it does not mean pregnancy. If αHCG is present but βHCG does not catch up, it is meaningless.

The reality that the ovulation test paper shows a strong positive result after pregnancy is actually a relatively normal phenomenon. Women do not need to worry too much about the harmfulness of it, and there is no harmfulness in it. For women, as long as they are pregnant, their bodies will secrete a lot of hormones, which is also one of the reasons why the ovulation test paper shows a strong positive result after pregnancy, so women do not need to worry.
