Pregnancy test paper with one line

Young people will walk into the wedding temple in pairs. After getting married, two people will enter the stage of preparing for pregnancy, so at this time they need to use early pregnancy test strips frequently. Many women use early pregnancy test strips to determine whether they are pregnant, so what happens if the early pregnancy test strip shows a single bar? Let’s take a look together below!

What is the reason for the early pregnancy test paper showing a line C?

1. A line appears in area C of the pregnancy test stick, which means the result is negative, indicating that you are not pregnant. Two dark purple bands appeared. One is located in the testing area (T) and the other is located in the quality control area (C). Indicates pregnancy.

2. Only a dark purple band appears in the quality control area (C), and no dark purple band appears in the detection area (T). Indicates not pregnant.

3. No dark purple bands appear in the quality control area (C), indicating an incorrect operating procedure or that the experimental reagent strip has become moldy and damaged.

How long does it take for an early pregnancy test to show

The principle of using early pregnancy test strips for pregnancy testing is to test the hCG value, that is, the value of human chorionic gonadotropin in the body. This type of growth hormone is produced by the embryo and usually appears in the urine a few days after pregnancy. However, due to the small amount, it is difficult to test it at the beginning. It will not become obvious until 10-14 months. It usually takes about 7 days from intercourse to pregnancy. In other words, you can test whether you are pregnant on the day of conception (which is 7 days after intercourse), but the accuracy is not high. Generally, the test results will be more accurate if you test again 14 days after intercourse.

What does it mean when the early pregnancy test paper shows a line C? If this happens, it means you are not pregnant. If two bars appear, it means you are pregnant. Early pregnancy test strips are often used by young people, but their accuracy is not 100%. If you use early pregnancy test strips and find that you are already pregnant, you must go to the hospital for a prompt check-up.
