How to use pregnancy test stick

A pregnancy test stick is a way to check whether a woman is pregnant. However, for many women who use pregnancy test sticks for the first time, the question of how to use them correctly remains in their minds. In order to effectively help these friends, today we will tell you the correct way to use the pregnancy test stick and how to test it.

Directions:

1. Tear open the aluminum foil bag along the notch and take out the pregnancy test stick when using it;

2. Put on the disposable plastic film gloves included in the box, hold one end of the handle of the pregnancy test stick tightly with your thumb, and tilt the end with the urine suction hole downward. Note that the observation side of the pregnancy test stick should face downward, and the plum blossom pattern should face upward;

3. Aim at the urine suction hole on the side of the pregnancy test stick and urinate, allowing the urine to pass through the urine suction hole, and maintain the urine collection time for 1 to 2 seconds (please note that urine should not wet the observation window when collecting urine! Otherwise, the pregnancy test stick will become invalid);

4. Then turn the pregnancy test stick over so that the observation window is facing upwards, and continue to hold the pregnancy test stick at an angle. When you see purple-red liquid crawling across the observation window, purple-red lines will appear on the observation window within 1 minute. The pregnancy result can be read after 1 minute, and the non-pregnancy result must be confirmed after 3 minutes. The results read after 5 minutes are invalid! Urine samples collected at any time are suitable for pregnancy test kits. If you are in early pregnancy, morning urine is best.

1. Not pregnant: Only one control line appears, indicating no pregnancy.

2. Pregnancy: If two lines appear, that is, both the control line and the test line are colored, and the test line is obviously clear, it means that you are pregnant; if the control line is obviously clear and the test line is very light, it means that you may be pregnant. Please collect morning urine with a new morning paper and retest every 2 days.

3. Invalid: No control line appears within 5 minutes, indicating that the test is invalid or failed.

The above is the correct way to use the pregnancy test stick introduced to you today, as well as how to detect whether you are pregnant. Of course, pregnancy test sticks are not 100% accurate. If you want to confirm whether you are pregnant, you need to go to a regular hospital for relevant examinations and blood tests. You cannot blindly trust pregnancy test sticks or test papers.
