Everyone knows that if a woman's menstruation is delayed, excluding any disease, it is most likely because she is pregnant. For this reason, many people choose to use a pregnancy test stick to test whether they are pregnant after their menstruation is delayed. Of course, there are certain things to pay attention to when using a pregnancy test stick. For example, if you use the pregnancy test stick seven to ten days after your menstrual period, the test results will be more accurate! 1. When is the pregnancy test stick usually used? Generally speaking, it is most accurate to use a pregnancy test stick 7-10 days after menopause. Since the amount of HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) emitted by different women varies to a certain extent, using a pregnancy test stick too early may result in inaccurate test results. The concentration of HCG in female urine is highest when the menstruation is delayed by 7 to 10 days, so the test results are often the most accurate. 2. Precautions for using pregnancy test sticks When using it, you should try to choose the first urine in the morning for testing, because the hormone level at this time is easiest to detect. If this is not possible, make sure the urine is stored in the bladder for at least four hours before testing. Do not drink too much water to increase urine production, as this will dilute hormone levels and affect test results. Before starting the test, you should read the instructions carefully and follow each step accurately. If it is used improperly, there will be errors. If you are taking other medications during the test, be sure to read the label instructions carefully to see if the medications you are taking may affect the test results. 3. Under what circumstances is it unreliable to use a pregnancy test stick In addition, it should be noted that using pregnancy test sticks is very unreliable when menstruation is irregular. In this case, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital's gynecology department for a blood HCG or color Doppler ultrasound test. As a means of self-testing, pregnancy test sticks require female friends to have a correct and comprehensive understanding of them. Grasping the time, operation and precautions are the standards to ensure the accuracy of the pregnancy test stick. |
