Can pregnancy test sticks be used during the day?

Pregnancy test sticks can be used at any time, but because the food we eat during the day will affect the progesterone in our body, the data measured by the pregnancy test stick is not very accurate. The best way is to test it with early morning urine, when the test results are very accurate. If you still cannot detect your pregnancy, you can go to the hospital for a blood test. The results of the blood test are more accurate.

1. Usage

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.

2. Results

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.

3. Notes

1. Try to use 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 in the bladder for at least four hours before testing.

2. Do not drink too much water to increase urine, as this will dilute hormone levels.

3. Read the instructions carefully before starting the test and follow each step accurately.

4. Some medications may affect the test results, so be sure to read the label instructions carefully.

Additionally, if the pregnancy is ectopic, the HCG level may be too low to be detected by a pregnancy test. To confirm the test results, be sure to see a doctor.
