If there are two lines on the pregnancy test paper, does it mean that you are pregnant?

Many pregnant women don't even know they are pregnant. When some early symptoms of pregnancy appear, you realize that you may be pregnant and buy an early pregnancy test to check. When you find that you have two bars, you will probably think that you are pregnant, but does two bars on the pregnancy test paper mean you are pregnant?

Does two lines on the pregnancy test mean I'm pregnant?

Generally speaking, two lines on a pregnancy test paper are a sign of pregnancy, but pregnancy test papers are not accurate and have a certain degree of deviation. Pregnancy test strips may show suspected pregnancy due to user error or environmental influences. First-time users should conduct the test under the guidance of a doctor to avoid incorrect judgment.

It is unreasonable to determine whether you are pregnant only by using an early pregnancy test paper. If necessary, please go to a regular hospital for blood tests, B-ultrasound and other pregnancy tests.

Methods of pregnancy test:

1. The test method of pregnancy test paper is relatively simple. Women can test it at home. Women can detect a specific growth hormone in their urine from the 8th to 10th day of pregnancy. The early pregnancy test paper detects this substance in urine. If the pregnancy test paper shows two lines, it is a positive sign, which reminds you that you are already pregnant.

2. Blood test is the first step to understand the pregnancy results. You can do a blood test for HCG about 10 days after sex to confirm whether you are pregnant.

3. The B-type ultrasound examination should first be performed in the 5th week of pregnancy, which is one week after the menstrual period. A circular halo can be seen in the uterus on the B-type ultrasound screen, also known as the pregnancy ring. The shadow inside the ring is the amniotic fluid of the pregnant woman, in which the regular fetal heartbeat can also be seen. Therefore, using B-ultrasound to diagnose early pregnancy is the most appropriate and reliable way.

How to use pregnancy test strips?

1. Operation method

The first step is to read the manual carefully before conducting the test, and collect and restore the test reagents and urine samples to room temperature (20℃-30℃) before use. The second step is to remove the test strip from the original foil packaging bag and use it as soon as possible within 1 hour. The third step is to insert the test reagent strip into the urine sample collection hole in the direction of the arrow mark. Note: The urine level must not exceed the marked line on the test reagent strip. Step 4: After at least 5 seconds, remove the device and place it on a clean, flat surface to observe the result. Step 5. Wait for the dark purple band to appear. The test result should be loaded in 3 minutes. The judgment will be invalid after 10 minutes.

2. Usage time

For the use of pregnancy test strips, it is best to do it about forty days after the end of the menstrual period, so that the measurement result may be best. In other words, it is about 45 days after the last day of the menstrual period, and then you can start buying pregnancy test strips for measurement. If you are pregnant, you still have to wait for the ultrasound results to come out to completely confirm whether you are pregnant, so we still need to wait patiently for this process.

3. Application matters

When we use the pregnancy test paper for early pregnancy test, the best measurement time is in the morning, in the first urine in the morning, so that the measurement effect may be the most accurate, use a measuring cup to measure a certain amount of urine, and then insert the early pregnancy test paper into it, pay attention to not exceed the max line. In addition, when using the pregnancy test strip, we also need to pay attention to the cleanliness of the beaker. It must be a clean beaker to hold our urine.
